COMMENTS
The natural numbers can sequentially fill a right- or left-handed equilateral triangle. Componentwise addition of the values of these two triangles produces the present triangle.
The row sums for this triangle give A034262.
The difference between the right- and left-handed triangles produces A049581.
FORMULA
T(n,k) = n^2 + 1 for k = 1..n and n >= 1. - Georg Fischer, Oct 01 2021
Sum_{k=1..n} k * T(n,k) = A071237(n). - Alois P. Heinz, Oct 01 2021
