Pascal's Triangle

Pascal's Triangle is a triangular array of numbers where each number is the sum of the two numbers above it. It Looks something like this:

      1
     1 1
    1 2 1
   1 3 3 1
  1 4 6 4 1

And on and on...

Patterns and properties

Pascal's Triangle can also be written like this

                           $\binom{0}{0}$
                $\binom{1}{0}$                  $\binom{1}{1}$
   $\binom{2}{0}$                     $\binom{2}{1}$                $\binom{2}{1}$

And on and on... Remember that $\binom{n}{r}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$ where $n \ge r$.
