Comments

An isoscent sequence of length n is an integer sequence [s(1),...,s(n)] with s(1) = 0 and 0 <= s(i) <= 1 plus the number of level steps in [s(1),...,s(i)].

Columns k=0-10 give: A000012, A000295, A243228, A243229, A243230, A243231, A243232, A243233, A243234, A243235, A243236.

Row sums give A000110.

Last elements of rows give A243237.

Example

T(4,0) = 1: [0,0,0,0].
T(4,1) = 11: [0,0,0,1], [0,0,0,2], [0,0,0,3], [0,0,1,0], [0,0,1,1], [0,0,2,0], [0,0,2,1], [0,0,2,2], [0,1,0,0], [0,1,1,0], [0,1,1,1].
T(4,2) = 3: [0,0,1,2], [0,1,0,1], [0,1,1,2].

Maple

b:= proc(n, i, t) option remember; `if`(n<1, 1, expand(add(
      `if`(j>i, x, 1) *b(n-1, j, t+`if`(j=i, 1, 0)), j=0..t+1)))
    end:

Mathematica
