%N Number of triangular polyominoes (or triangular polyforms, or polyiamonds) with n cells (turning over is allowed, holes are allowed, must be connected along edges).

%C If holes are not allowed, we get A070765. - _Joseph Myers_, Apr 20 2009

%C It is a consequence of Madras's 1999 pattern theorem that almost all polyiamonds have holes, i.e., lim_{n->oo} A070765(n)/A000577(n) = 0. - _Johann Peters_, Jan 06 2024
