COMMENTS
The triangle is irregularly shaped: 1 <= k <= A030978(n). A030978(n) is the maximal number of knights that can be placed on an n X n board.
First row corresponds to n = 1.
Counting "inequivalent ways" means: Rotations or reflections of a placement of knights on the board are considered to be the same placement.
