%N Antidiagonal products of the multifactorial array.

%C It appears that the only squares in this sequence are a(0) = a(1) = 1, a(4) = 144, a(18) = 14671475874842562153331362760375664640000000000.

%F a(n) = Product_{k=1..n+1} A(n+1-k, k), where A denotes one of the arrays A114423 and A129116.

%F a(n) = Product_{k=1..n} Product_{m=1..floor(n/k)} (n + 1 - m*k).

%t A[0, k_]:=1; A[n_, k_]:=A[n, k]=If[1 <= n <= k, n, n*A[n - k, k]]; a[n_]:=Product[A[n+1-k,k],{k,n+1}]; Array[a,17,0]
