COMMENTS
The polynomial p(n,x) is the numerator of the rational function given by f(n,x) = x + floor(n/2))/f(n-1,x), where f(x,0) = 1. (Sum of numbers in row n) = A056953(n) for n >= 0. Column 1 consists of repeated factorials (A000142), as in A081123.

EXAMPLE
f(0,x) = 1/1, so that p(0,x) = 1
f(1,x) = (1 + x)/1, so that p(1,x) = 1 + x;
f(2,x) = (1 + x + x^2)/(1 + x), so that p(2,x) = 1 + x + x^2).
