Triangular array: Difference between revisions

Content deleted Content added
Applications: rm CYK algorithm example, which involves a triangular matrix, not the infinite triangles considered here
Examples: In the strings counted by Catalan's triangle, open parens are not unmatched, either! Ad URL for citation. Clean up a number of other citations (title first, volume/issue/page together)

Triangular arrays of integers in which each row is symmetric and begins and ends with 1 are sometimes called '''generalized Pascal triangles'''; examples include Pascal's triangle, the Narayana numbers, and the triangle of Eulerian numbers.<ref>{{citation
