FORMULA
T(n,1) = 1 for n >= 2, because the only graphs with metric dimension 1 are the paths of positive lengths (Chartrand et al. 2000).
T(n,n-2) = A047209(n-2) = floor(5*n/2-6) for n >= 3 (follows from the complete description of graphs with n nodes and metric dimension n-2 by Chartrand et al. 2000).
T(n,n-1) = 1 for n >= 1 , because the only graph with n nodes and metric dimension n-1 is the complete graph (Chartrand et al. 2000).
