COMMENTS
"Runs-resistance" is defined in A318928.
Row sums are 2,4,8,16,... (the binary vectors may begin with 0 or 1).
This is similar to A329767 but without the k = 0 column and with a different row n = 1. - Gus Wiseman, Nov 25 2019

Lenormand gives the first 20 rows.
The calculation of row 4 is as follows.
We may assume the first bit is a 0, and then double the answers.
vector / runs / steps to reach a single number:
0000 / 4 / 1
0001 / 31 -> 11 -> 2 / 3
0010 / 211 -> 12 -> 11 -> 2 / 4
0011 / 22 -> 2 / 2
0100 / 112 -> 21 -> 11 -> 2 / 4
0101 / 1111 -> 4 / 2
0110 / 121 -> 111 -> 3 / 3
0111 / 13 -> 11 -> 2 / 3
and we get 1 (once), 2 (twice), 3 (three times) and 4 (twice).
So row 4 is: 2,4,6,4.

CROSSREFS
Row sums are A000079.
Column k = 2 is 2 * A032741 = A319410.
Column k = 3 is 2 * A329745 (because runs-resistance 2 for compositions corresponds to runs-resistance 3 for binary words).
The version for compositions is A329744.
The version for partitions is A329746.
The number of nonzero entries in row n > 0 is A319412(n).
The runs-resistance of the binary expansion of n is A318928.
