FORMULA

For n > 1, a(n) = A061761(n-1). - David Wasserman (wasserma(AT)spawar.navy.mil), Jun 03 2004

EXAMPLE

The triangle pertaining to n = 4 is obtained from the solid triangle

.....1

...1...1

.1...2...1

1..3...3...1

giving

.....1

...1...1

.1.......1

1..3...3...1

and the sum of all the numbers is 13, a(4) = 13.
