%N Triangular array: row n gives the coefficients of the polynomial p(n,x) defined in Comments.

%C The polynomial p(n,x) is the numerator of the rational function given by f(n,x) = x + floor((n+1)/2)/f(n-1,x), where f(0,x) = 1.

%C (Sum of numbers in row n) = A056953(n) for n >= 0.

%C Column 1 consists of repeated factorials (A000142), as in A081123.

%H Clark Kimberling, <a href="/A249128/b249128.txt">Rows 0..100, flattened</a>

%e f(0,x) = 1/1, so that p(0,x) = 1;

%e f(1,x) = (1 + x)/1, so that p(1,x) = 1 + x;

%e f(2,x) = (1 + x + x^2)/(1 + x), so that p(2,x) = 1 + x + x^2.
