COMMENTS
Row n contains n-1 entries (n>=2).
The odd graph O_n is a graph whose vertices represent the (n-1)-subsets of {1,2,...,2n-1} and two vertices are connected if and only if they correspond to disjoint subsets. It is a distance regular graph.
The entries in row n are the coefficients of the Hosoya-Wiener polynomial of the odd graph O_n (n>=2).

FORMULA
A formula is "hidden" in the Maple program. B(n) and C(n) are the intersection arrays of O_n while H(n) is the Hosoya-Wiener polynomial of O_n.
EXAMPLE
Row 2 has only one entry equal to 3; indeed, O_2 is the complete graph K_3, having 3 distances equal to 1.
MAPLE
B := proc (n) options operator, arrow: [seq(n-floor((1/2)*m), m = 1 .. n-1)] end proc: C := proc (n) options operator, arrow: [seq(ceil((1/2)*m), m = 1 .. n-1)] end proc: H := proc (n) options operator, arrow: (1/2)*binomial(2*n-1, n-1)*(sum((product(B(n)[r]/C(n)[r], r = 1 .. j))*t^j, j = 1 .. n-1)) end proc: for n from 2 to 10 do seq(coeff(H(n), t, k), k = 1 .. n-1) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
