The formula

each entry is the sum of the two above it

What the rows are

Row n holds the binomial coefficients "n choose k" — the coefficients of (a + b)ⁿ, and the number of ways to pick k things from n. Each row sums to 2ⁿ, because that counts every possible subset.

The diagonals hold the counting numbers, then the triangular numbers, then the tetrahedral numbers — and shallow diagonals sum to the Fibonacci sequence.
