A230210 Trapezoid of dot products of row 7 (signs alternating) with sequential 8-tuples read by rows in Pascal's triangle A007318: T(n,k) is the linear combination of the 8-tuples (C(7,0), -C(7,1), ..., C(7,6), -C(7,7)) and (C(n-1,k-7), C(n-1,k-6), ..., C(n-1,k)), n >= 1, 0 <= k <= n+6. 3

%N Trapezoid of dot products of row 7 (signs alternating) with sequential 8-tuples read by rows in Pascal's triangle A007318: T(n,k) is the linear combination of the 8-tuples (C(7,0), -C(7,1), ..., C(7,6), -C(7,7)) and (C(n-1,k-7), C(n-1,k-6), ..., C(n-1,k)), n >= 1, 0 <= k <= n+6.

%C The array is trapezoidal rather than triangular because C(n,k) is not uniquely defined for all negative n and negative k.

%C Row sums are 0.

%C Coefficients of (x-1)^7 (x+1)^(n-1), n > 0.

%F T(n,k) = Sum_{i=0..n+m-1} (-1)^(i+m)*C(m,i)*C(n-1,k-i), n >= 1, with T(n,0) = (-1)^m and m=7.
