%N Triangle, read by rows, where T(n,k) is the coefficient of q^(nk-k) in the squared q-factorial of n.
%C Dual triangle is A129274.
%C Central terms form a bisection of A127728.

%F T(n,k) = [q^(nk-k)] Product_{i=1..n} { (1-q^i)/(1-q) }^2 for n>0, with T(0,0)=1.
%F Row sums = (n!)^2/(n-1) for n>=2.
%e Definition of q-factorial of n:
%e faq(n,q) = Product_{k=1..n} (1-q^k)/(1-q) for n>0, with faq(0,q)=1.
%e Obtain row 4 from coefficients in the squared q-factorial of 4:
%e faq(4,q)^2 = 1*(1 + q)^2*(1 + q + q^2)^2*(1 + q + q^2 + q^3)^2
%e = (1 + 3*q + 5*q^2 + 6*q^3 + 5*q^4 + 3*q^5 + q^6)^2;
%e the resulting coefficients of q are:
%e [(1), 6, 19, (42), 71, 96, (106), 96, 71, (42), 19, 6, (1)],
%e where the terms enclosed in parenthesis form row 4.
