%N Pentagonal triangle.

%C This is to A093445 as pentagonal numbers A000326 are to triangular numbers A000217. The n-th row of the triangular table begins by considering A000217(n) pentagonal numbers (starting with 1) in order. Now segregate them into n chunks beginning with n members in the first chunk, n-1 members in the second chunk, and so forth. Now sum each chunk. Thus the first term is the sum of first n numbers = n*(3n-1)/2, the second term is the sum of the next n-1 terms (from n+1 to 2n-1), the third term is the sum of the next n-2 terms (2n to 3n-3)... This triangle can be called the pentagonal triangle. The sequence contains the triangle by rows. The first column is A002411 (Pentagonal pyramidal numbers: n^2*(n+1)/2).

%F T(n,1) = A002411(n).

%F T(n,2) = n*(n-1)*(7*n-2)/2.

%F T(n,3) = (n-2)*(19*n^2-26*n+9)/2 = Sum_{i=2n..3(n-1)} A000326(i).

%e The row for n = 4 is (1+5+12+22), (35+51+70), (92+117), 145 => 40, 156, 209, 145.
