I am calculating the first several terms of a combinatorial function that is useful in the counting of certain elements of a polytope I’m studying. The combinatorial function has three integer parameters, so it forms a tetrahedral array. It’s not in OEIS.
I have a recursive means of calculating the function. Next, I’m going to figure out the function as a rational expression in integers i, j, k. Then, I’ll post it on Math Stackexchange. Then, I’ll submit it to OEIS.
I’ve worked it out, and now I’m not sure that this function is OEIS-worthy (although it’s at least as worthy as Jenny’s constant). I will definitely post a question on Math StackExchange, and not answer it (if even necessary) for a month or two, in honor of my namesake.

Too many OEIS submission mention xkcd to take it seriously :)
