%e The rows of this triangle tend to A188156.
%e From _Omar E. Pol_, Apr 02 2016: (Start)
%e For n = 5 we have that A139251(5-2) = 4, A267699(5-2) = 7 and A267695(5-1) = 7, so a(5) = 2*4 + 7 + 7 = 22.
%e For n = 10 we have that A139251(10-2) = 8, A267699(10-2) = 20 and A267695(10-1) = 4, so a(10) = 2*8 + 20 + 4 = 40.
