Lattice Path Interpretations
![]() Snapshot 1: paths consisting only of steps northeast and southeast that are allowed to drop below the axis represent the central binomial coefficients—that is, the middle entries in Pascal's triangleSnapshot 2: paths that do not cross the axis and consist of single steps northeast and southeast and double steps east describe the Schröder numbersSnapshot 3: paths that can cross the axis and consist only of single steps northeast, southeast, and east are equivalent to the sums of squares of the trinomial coefficients—that is, the coefficients in the expansion of ![]() Identification of "sums of squares of trinomial coefficients" (A082758) thanks to the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences: http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/. ![]() "Lattice Path Interpretations" from The Wolfram Demonstrations Project http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/LatticePathInterpretations/ Contributed by: Robert Dickau | ||||||||||||||
