%N Irregular triangle read by rows: T(n, k) = number of inequivalent (mod the dihedral group D_8 of order 8) ways to place k nonattacking knights on an n X n board.

%C 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.

%C First row corresponds to n = 1.

%C Counting "inequivalent ways" means: Rotations or reflections of a placement of knights on the board are considered to be the same placement.
