%N Irregular triangle read by rows: T(n,k), n >= 1, k >= 1, in which column k lists the odd numbers k times, and the first element of column k is in row k(k+1)/2.
%C A missing companion to A196020 and A235791.
%C T(n,k) is the total number of horizontal steps in the first n levels of the k-th largest double-staircase of the diagram defined in A335616 (see example). - _Omar E. Pol_, Nov 30 2020
%C Column k is the partial sums of the k-th column of A339275. - _Omar E. Pol_, Dec 01 2020

%e From _Omar E. Pol_, Nov 30 2020: (Start)
%e For an illustration of the rows of triangle consider the infinite "double-staircases" diagram defined in A335616.
%e For n = 15 the diagram with first 15 levels looks like this:

%e The first largest double-staircase has 29 horizontal steps, the second double-staircase has 13 steps, the third double-staircase has 7 steps, the fourth double-staircase has 3 steps and the fifth double-staircase has only one step, so the 15th row of triangle is [29, 13, 7, 3, 1]. (End)
