FORMULA
The k-th column satisfies a recurrence of order Fibonacci(k+1) [Zeilberger] - see links in A228285. - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 22 2013

MATHEMATICA
b[n_, l_] := b[n, l] = Module[{k, t}, Which[Max[l] > n, 0, n == 0 || l == {}, 1, Min[l] > 0, t = Min[l]; b[n-t, l-t], True, k = Position[l, 0, 1][[1, 1]]; b[n, ReplacePart[l, k -> 1]] + If[k < Length[l] && l[[k+1]] == 0, b[n, ReplacePart[l, {k -> 1, k+1 -> 2}]], 0] ] ]; a[n_, k_] := b[Max[n, k], Array[0&, Min[n, k]]]; Table[Table[a[n, d-n], {n, 0, d}], {d, 0, 14}] // Flatten (* Jean-François Alcover, Dec 18 2013, translated from Maple *)
CROSSREFS
Columns (or rows) k=0+1,2-10 give: A000012, A000045(n+1), A002478, A105262, A219737(n-1) for n>2, A219738 (n-1) for n>2, A219739(n-1) for n>1, A219740(n-1) for n>2, A226543, A226544.
Main diagonal gives A066864(n-1).
See A219741 for an array with very similar entries. - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 22 2013
