Row sums are n^2 = A000290(n).
The triangle sums, see A180662 for their definitions, link this triangle of odd numbers with seventeen different sequences, see the crossrefs. The knight sums Kn14 - Kn110 have been added. - Johannes W. Meijer, Sep 22 2010
A208057 is the eigentriangle of A158405 such that as infinite lower triangular matrices, A158405 * A208057 shifts the latter, deleting the right border of 1's. - Gary W. Adamson, Feb 22 2012
T(n,k) = A099375(n-1,n-k), 1<=k<=n. [Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 31 2012]

FORMULA
a(n) = 2*i-1, where i = n-t(t+1)/2, t = floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2). - Boris Putievskiy, Feb 03 2013
a(n) = 2*A002262(n-1) + 1. - Eric Werley, Sep 30 2015
EXAMPLE
The triangle contains the first n odd numbers in row n:
1;
1,3;
1,3,5;
1,3,5,7;
