%N Triangle read by rows. Number of self-measuring subsets of the initial segment of the natural numbers strictly below n and cardinality k. Number of subsets S of [n] with S = distset(S) and |S| = k.

%C We use the notation [n] = {0, 1, ..., n-1}. If S is a subset of [n] then we define the distset of S (set of distances of S) as {|x - y|: x, y in S}. We call a subset S of the natural numbers self-measuring if and only if S = distset(S).

%F T(n, k) = floor((n - 1) / (k - 1)) for k >= 2.

%F T(n, k) = 1 if k = 0 or k = 1 or n >= k >= floor((n + 1)/2).

%e Triangle starts:

%e [ 0] [1]

%e [ 1] [1, 1]

%e [ 2] [1, 1, 1]

%e [ 3] [1, 1, 2, 1]

%e [ 4] [1, 1, 3, 1, 1]

%e [ 5] [1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 1]

%e [ 6] [1, 1, 5, 2, 1, 1, 1]

%e [ 7] [1, 1, 6, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1]

%e [ 8] [1, 1, 7, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1]

%e [ 9] [1, 1, 8, 4, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1]

%e [10] [1, 1, 9, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

%e [11] [1, 1, 10, 5, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

%e [12] [1, 1, 11, 5, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

%e .

%e The first column is 1,1,... because {} = distset({}) and |{}| = 0.

%e The second column is 1,1,... because {0} = distset({0}) and |{0}| = 1.

%e The third column is n-1 because {0, j} = distset({0, j}) and |{0, j}| = 2 for j = 1..n - 1.

%e The main diagonal is 1,1,... because [n] = distset([n]) and |[n]| = n (these are the complete rulers A103295).
