%N Irregular triangle read by rows: T(n, k) gives the coefficients of the Girard-Waring formula for the sum of n-th power of five indeterminates in terms of their elementary symmetric functions (reverse Abramowitz-Stegun order of partitions).

%C The length of row n is A001401(n), n >= 1.

%C The Girard-Waring formula for the power sum p(5,n) = Sum_{j=1..5} (x_j)^n in terms of the elementary symmetric functions e_j(x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4), for j = 1, 2 ,..., 5 is given in the W. Lang reference, Theorem 1, in an explicitly nested four sums version. See also the summary link, for N = 5 (there sigma_j^{(N)} -> e_j here).

%C In this array the partitions of n, with all partitions with a part >= 6 omitted, are used. Here the partitions appear in the reverse Abramowitz-Stegun order. See row n of the array of Waring numbers A115131, read backwards, with the entries corresponding to these omitted partitions.
