COMMENTS
The reverse-alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i. This is equal to (-1)^(k-1) times the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition, where k is the number of parts.
Also the number of reversed integer partitions of 2*n with alternating sum 2*k.

FORMULA
From Seiichi Manyama, May 17 2026: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} T(n,k) * q^n = (Product_{j>0} 1/(1-q^j)) * (Sum_{n>=0} A344649(n,k) * q^n).
T(n,k) = Sum_{j=0..n} A344649(j,k) * A000041(n-j). (End)
For fixed k > 0, T(n,k) ~ 2^(k - 5/2) * 3^(k-1) * n^(k - 3/2) * exp(Pi*sqrt(2*n/3)) / ((2*k-1)! * Pi^(2*k-1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 20 2026

CROSSREFS
The columns with initial 0's removed appear to converge to A006330.
The odd version is A239829.
The non-reversed version is A239830.
Row sums are A344611, odd bisection of A344607.
Including odd n and negative k gives A344612 (strict: A344739).
The strict case is A344649 (row sums: A344650).
A000041 counts partitions of 2*n with alternating sum 0, ranked by A000290.
A103919 counts partitions by sum and alternating sum.
A120452 counts partitions of 2*n with rev-alt sum 2 (negative: A344741).
A316524 is the alternating sum of the prime indices of n (reverse: A344616).
A325534/A325535 count separable/inseparable partitions.
A344604 counts wiggly compositions with twins.
A344618 gives reverse-alternating sums of standard compositions.
Columns k=0-4 give: A000041, A120452, A393996, A396090, A396091.
