Generalized Pascal Triangle - satisfying the same recurrence as Pascal's triangle, but with a(n,0)=1 and a(n,n)=10^n (instead of both being 1).

COMMENTS
Like with Pascal's triangle, the columns grown polynomially. For example, a(n,1)=10+n, a(n,2)=(1/2)*(180+19n+n^2), a(n,3)=(1/6)*(5400 + 569n + 30n^2 + n^3). Likewise, diagonals grow exponentially: a(n,n)=10^n, a(n,n-1) = (10^n-1) / 9. - Kellen Myers, Jan 24 2010

FORMULA
From Kellen Myers, Jan 24 2010: (Start)
a(n,k) = Sum_{i = 0..k} 10^i * binomial(n-i-1, n-k-1), for 0<=k<=n.
a(n,0) = 1, a(n,n) = 10^n, a(n,k) = a(n-1,k-1)+a(n-1,k). (End)
T(n,k) = T(n-1,k)+11*T(n-1,k-1)-10*T(n-2,k-1)-10*T(n-2,k-2), T(0,0)=1, T(1,0)=1, T(1,1)=10, T(n,k)=0 if k<0 or if k>n. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 27 2013
