A349812 Triangle read by rows: row 1 is [1]; for n >= 1, row n gives coefficients of expansion of (-1/x + x)*(1/x + 1 + x)^(n-1) in order of increasing powers of x.

Comments

The rule for constructing this triangle (ignoring row 0) is the same as that for A027907: each number is the sum of the three numbers immediately above it in the previous row. Here row 1 is [-1, 0, 1] instead of [1, 1, 1].
