The Rascal Triangle definition is similar to that of the Pascal
Triangle. The rows are numbered from the top starting with 0. Each row n contains n + 1 numbers
indexed from 0 to n. Using R(n, m) to indicate the index m item in the index n row:
R(n, m) = 0 for n < 0 OR m <
0 OR m > n
The first and last numbers in
each row (which are the same in the top row) are 1:
R(n, 0) = R(n, n) = 1
The interior values are
determined by (UpLeftEntry * UpRightEntry + 1) / UpEntry
(See the parallelogram in the
array below):
R(n
+ 1, m + 1) = (R(n, m) * R(n, m + 1) + 1) / R(n – 1, m)

Write a program which computes R(n, m) the mth element of the nth row of the Rascal Triangle.
