NorthStepOrderingCount on DyckPath ​

The total orderings of the up steps such that the up steps after the k-th down step are never among the first k in the order.

On DyckPath

The coefficient of z_1^a_1 ... z_n^a_n in the product of (z_1 + ... + z_k), by Stanley's product formula: each factor is the height before a down step over the factorial of the up steps since the last one.

Called as CombinatorialStat(x, "NorthStepOrderingCount"). The head's page has its examples.
