A163841
Triangle interpolating the swinging factorial (A056040) restricted to even indices with its binomial transform. Same as interpolating bilateral Schroeder paths (A026375) with the central binomial coefficients (A000984).

COMMENTS
For n >= 0, k >= 0 let T(n,k) = sum{i=k..n} binomial(n-k,n-i)*(2i)$ where i$ denotes the swinging factorial of i (A056040). Triangle read by rows.

MAPLE
Computes n rows of the triangle. For the functions 'SumTria' and 'swing' see A163840.
a := n -> SumTria(k->swing(2*k), n, true);
