COMMENTS
Row n has 1 + floor(n^2/3) terms.
Row sums are equal to 3^n = A000244(n).
Alternating row sums are 3^(ceiling(n/2)) = A108411(n+1).
T(n,0) = (n+1)*(n+2)/2 = A000217(n+1).
Sum_{k>=0} k*T(n,k) = 3^(n-1)*n*(n-1)/2 = A129530(n).
This sequence is mentioned in the Andrews-Savage-Wilf paper. - Omar E. Pol, Jan 30 2012

FORMULA
Generating polynomial of row n is Sum_{i=0..n} Sum_{j=0..n-i} binomial[n; i,j,n-i-j], where binomial[n;a,b,c] (a+b+c=n) is a q-multinomial coefficient.
EXAMPLE
T(3,2)=8 because we have 100, 110, 120, 200, 201, 211, 220 and 221.
