FORMULA
T(n,m) = Sum_{k=1...[n + m*n/r]} [1 - r + n*(r + m)/k], where r=sqrt(3) and [ ]=floor.
EXAMPLE
Northwest corner:
1 2 4 5 8 9 12 15
3 7 11 16 22 26 33 40
6 13 21 30 38 49 59 70
10 20 32 44 58 72 87 103
14 27 42 61 78 98 117 137
18 36 55 77 100 124 147 175
24 46 69 95 123 152 183 212
The numbers k*(r+h), approximately:
(for k=1): 1.732 2.732 3.732 ...
(for k=2): 3.464 5.464 7.464 ...
(for k=3): 5.196 8.196 12.296 ...
Replacing each by its rank gives
1 2 4
3 7 11
6 13 21
