%N A symmetric triangle, with sum the large Schröder numbers.
%C a(n) is the number of noncrossing plants in the n+1 polygon, with no right corner, according to the number of left and top corners.
%C T(n,k) counts ordered complete binary trees with n leaves having k internal vertices colored black, the remaining n-1-k internal vertices colored white, and such that each vertex and its rightmost child have different colors. An example is given below. See Example 1.6.7 in [Drake] but note this triangle is not equal to A089447 as stated there. Compare with A196201. - _Peter Bala_, Sep 30 2011
%C Alternating sums seems to be A027307 (areated). - _F. Chapoton_, Mar 14 2024
