EXAMPLE
For n=4 the 10 ballot sequences of length 4 and differences between the multiplicities of the smallest and the largest value are:
[1, 2, 3, 4] -> 1-1 = 0,
[1, 1, 2, 2] -> 2-2 = 0,
[1, 2, 1, 2] -> 2-2 = 0,
[1, 1, 1, 1] -> 4-4 = 0,
[1, 1, 2, 3] -> 2-1 = 1,
[1, 2, 1, 3] -> 2-1 = 1,
[1, 2, 3, 1] -> 2-1 = 1,
[1, 1, 1, 2] -> 3-1 = 2,
[1, 1, 2, 1] -> 3-1 = 2,
[1, 2, 1, 1] -> 3-1 = 2,
thus row 4 = [4, 3, 3, 0, 0].
The 10 tableaux with 4 cells sorted by the difference between the lengths of the first and the last row are:
:[1] [1 2] [1 3] [1 2 3 4]:[1 2] [1 3] [1 4]:[1 2 3] [1 2 4] [1 3 4]:
:[2] [3 4] [2 4] :[3] [2] [2] :[4] [3] [2] :
:[3] :[4] [4] [3] : :
:[4] : : :
: -----------0----------- : -------1------- : ----------2---------- :
