COMMENTS
A block of a permutation is a maximal sequence of consecutive integers which appear in consecutive positions. For example, the permutation 45123867 has 4 blocks: 45, 123, 8, and 67.
Mirror image of A177263.

FORMULA
T(n, k) = (n-1)! - (k-2)! if 2 <= k <= n, otherwise T(n, 1) = 0! + 1! + ... + (n-1)! = A003422(n).
Sum_{k=1..n} T(n, k) = A000142(n).
T(n, k) = A177263(n, n-k+1) (mirror image).
EXAMPLE
T(4,3)=5 because we have 12-4-3, 2-1-34, 2-1-4-3, 2-4-1-3, and 4-2-1-3 (the blocks are separated by dashes).

MAPLE
T := proc (n, k) if 2 <= k and k <= n then factorial(n-1)-factorial(k-2) elif k = 1 then sum(factorial(j), j = 0 .. n-1) else 0 end if end proc: for n to 10 do seq(T(n, k), k = 1 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
