Pascal's Triangle

Pascal's Triangle is a triangular array of binomial coefficients. It is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, who first described it in 1654. The triangle is constructed by starting with a 1 at the top and then adding the two numbers above each number to get the number below it. This process is repeated until the desired number of rows is reached.
