Well, NOW you've done it! Just when I thought I could beg off on this talk,
it all seems to be working ;-) Thanks, Tom and Eric.
I've appended a sample output, just FYI. I also tried it for n=7 and got the
correct results. Magic!
As an aside, the rows of the Pascal Triangle should sum to 2^n, which they do
in my test cases. I haven't yet implemented Eric's (much sexier)
"sum(sub-diagonal-elements) == Fibonacci nos." test, but I'll look into it.
Thanks again,
-- Mike
