Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} whose 2nd cycle has k entries; each cycle is written with the smallest element first and cycles are arranged in increasing order of their first elements (n>=1; 0<=k<=n-1). For example, 1432=(1)(24)(3) has 2 entries in the 2nd cycle; 3421=(1324) has 0 entries in the 2nd cycle.
T(n,k)=(n-1)T(n-1,k)+(n-2)! (1<=k<=n-1). The row generating polynomials P[n](t) satisfy: P[n+1](t)=nP[n](t)+(n-1)!(t+t^2+...+t^n).
EXAMPLE
T(4,2)=5 because we have (1)(23)(4), (1)(24)(3), (13)(24), (12)(34) and (14)(23).

MAPLE
T:=proc (n, k) if k = 0 then factorial(n-1) elif n <= k then 0 else (n-1)*T(n-1, k)+factorial(n-2) end if end proc: for n to 9 do seq(T(n, k), k=0..n-1) end do;
