A181338 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of 2-compositions of n having largest entry k (1<=k<=n). A 2-composition of n is a nonnegative matrix with two rows, such that each column has at least one nonzero entry and whose entries sum up to n. 1

COMMENTS
The sum of entries in row n is A003480(n).
T(n,1)=A000129(n+1) (the Pell numbers).
Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..n)=A181339.

FORMULA
G.f. for 2-compositions with all entries <= k is h(k,z)=(1-z)^2/(1-4z+2z^2+2z^{k+1}-z^{2k+2}).
G.f. for 2-compositions with largest entry k is f(k,z)=h(k,z)-h(k-1,z) (these are the column g.f.'s).
G.f. = G(t,z)=Sum(f(k,z)*t^k, k=1..infinity).
EXAMPLE
T(3,3)=2 because we have (0/3) and (3/0) (the 2-compositions are written as (top row/bottom row).
