%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n having k LD's (n>=0; 0<=k<=floor((n-1)/2)).

%C A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of a path is defined to be the number of its steps.

%C Row n has ceiling(n/2) terms (n >= 1).

%C Row sums yield A002212.

%F T(n,0) = 3(2n)!/((n+2)!(n-1)!) = A000245(n) (n >= 1).

%F Sum_{k=0..floor((n-1)/2)} k*T(n,k) = A128734(n).

%F G.f.: G = G(t,z) satisfies tz^2*G^3 - (t-1)z^2*G^2 - (1 - 3z + 2z^2)G + (1-z)^2 = 0.

%e T(3,1)=1 because we have UUUDLD.
