COMMENT

Define (n+1) X (n+1) matrices by M(n)=(binomial(i+1,j),i,j=0..n). The coefficients of the characteristic polynomials of these matrices yield the above sequence. Note : first 1 added to complete the triangle.

FORMULA

T(1, 1)=1, T(1, k)=0, k>1. T(n, k)=-T(n-1, k-1)+kT(n, k-1), n>1

EXAMPLE

Rows are {1}, {1,-1}, {1,-3,1},{1,-7,6,-1},{1,-15,25,-10,1},... 25=-(-7)+3*6, -10=-6+4(-1)
