FORMULA
Empirical for column k:
k=1: a(n) = a(n-1).
k=2: a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 16*a(n-2) for n > 3.
k=3: a(n) = 12*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2).
k=4: a(n) = 18*a(n-1) - 81*a(n-2) for n > 3.
k=5: a(n) = 30*a(n-1) - 261*a(n-2) + 540*a(n-3) - 324*a(n-4).
k=6: a(n) = 50*a(n-1) - 805*a(n-2) + 4662*a(n-3) - 12150*a(n-4) + 14580*a(n-5) - 6561*a(n-6).
k=7: [order 8]
Empirical for row n:
n=1: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 4*a(n-2) for n > 4.
n=2: a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 9*a(n-2) for n > 4.
n=3: a(n) = 10*a(n-1) - 29*a(n-2) + 20*a(n-3) - 4*a(n-4) for n > 6.
n=4: [order 6] for n > 12.
n=5: [order 14] for n > 18.
n=6: [order 18] for n > 26.
n=7: [order 54] for n > 60.
