%N Irregular triangle: row n lists the odd numbers of the reduced residue system modulo n.

%C The length of row n is delta(n) = A055034(n).

%C Here the smallest nonnegative complete system modulo n is used: {0,1,...,n-1}, and the reduced residue system modulo n (A038566) is the set of numbers k from this set which satisfy gcd(k, n) = 1. The present array lists only the odd numbers. For n = 1 one should take 0 because gcd(0, 1) = 1, but because 1 == 0 (mod 1) we prefer the odd 1.

%C This is the sub-array obtained from A038566 by deleting the even numbers.

%C In the multiplicative group Modd n (see a comment in A203571) each of the delta(n) members of row n forms a reduced residue class Modd n with only odd numbers. E.g., n=4 (only the positive members are listed, the negative members should be amended): [1] = {1, 7, 9, 15, 17, 23, 25, 31, 33, 39,...}; [3] = {3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 21, 27, 29, 35, 37...}. Multiplication Modd n can be done class-wise: 7*15 == 1*1 (Modd 4) = 1; 11*13 ==3*3 (Modd 4) = 1; 7*5 == 1*3 (Modd 4) = 3.

%C The orders 'Moddulo' n of the elements in row n are given in A216320.
