%N Irregular triangular array generated as in Comments; contains every positive integer exactly once.

%C Decree that row 1 is (1) and row 2 is (2). For n >= 3, row n consists of numbers in increasing order generated as follows: 2*x for each x in row n-1 together with 1+2*x for each x in row n-2. It is easy to prove that row n consists of F(n) numbers, where F = A000045 (the Fibonacci numbers), and that every positive integer occurs exactly once. Row n has F(n-1) even numbers and F(n-2) odd numbers.

%C The least and greatest numbers in row n are A083329(n-1) and 2^(n-1), for n >= 1.

%e First 6 rows of the array:

%t z = 10; g[1] = {1}; f1[x_] := x + 1; f2[x_] := 2 x; h[1] = g[1];

%t b[n_] := b[n] = DeleteDuplicates[Union[f1[g[n - 1]], f2[g[n - 1]]]];

%t h[n_] := h[n] = Union[h[n - 1], g[n - 1]];

%t g[n_] := g[n] = Complement [b[n], Intersection[b[n], h[n]]]

%t u = Table[g[n], {n, 1, z}]; v = Flatten[u] (* A243571 *)

%Y Cf. A232559, A243572, A243573, A000045.

%Y Cf. A052955 for the first element in each row.
