You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is a confusing question.
If the above table is what you tried to write,
it seems that there are 2 pin in row number 1,
3 pins in row number 2,
5 pins in row number 3,
7 pins in row number 4,
and so on.
So, after row 2, each row has 2 more pins than the one before.
I would have expected row 1 to have just 1 pin.
