%N Triangle A074909(n) with 0's as second column.

%C For Bernoulli numbers, B(1) excluded.

%C B(n) is calculated via

%C B(0) = 1;

%C B(0) + 0 = 1;

%C B(0) + 0 + 3*B(2) = 3/2;

%C B(0) + 0 + 6*B(2) + 4*B(3) = 2;

%C etc.

%C The diagonal is A026741(n+1)/A040001(n).

%C Row sums: 1, 1, 4, 11, 26, 57, ..., essentially Euler numbers A000295. See A130103, A008292 and A173018.

%C There is an infinitude of Bernoulli number sequences. They are of the form

%C B(n,q) = 1, q, 1/6, 0, -1/30, 0, 1/42, 0, -1/30, 0, 5/66, 0, ... .

%C Chronologically, the first, and the most regular, is, for q=1/2, A164555(n)/A027642(n), from Jacob Bernoulli (1654-1705), published in Ars Conjectandi in 1713 and(?) Seko Kowa (1642-1708) in 1712. See A159688. The second is, for q=-1/2, B(n,-1/2) = A027641(n)/A027642(n), from B(n,1/2) via Pascal's triangle. We could choose Be(n,q) instead of B(n,q) to avoid confusion with Sloane's B(n,p) for A027641(n)/A027642(n) (p=-1), A164555(n)/A027642(n) (p=1), A164558(n)/A027642(n) (p=2), A157809(n)/A027642(n) (p=3), ..., successive binomial transforms of the previous sequence.

%C This motivates the proposal of the (independent of q) sequence Bernoulli(n+2):

%C B(n+2) = 1/6, 0, -1/30, 0, 1/42, 0, -1/30, 0, 5/66, ... and its inverse binomial transform. See A190339.
