After pointing out that Fibonacci numbers are nothing but upward diagonal sums of Pascal triangle, we generalize the triangular arrays in question from the natural sequence based to arithmetically progressive sequences based and call their upward diagonal sum Fibonacci values. After looking at more triangular arrays based on other sequences such as binomial coefficients and Fibonacci numbers, we eventually conclude that such construction of triangular arrays works with any underlying sequence base. ...............KEYWORDS: Binomial coefficient, Stirling number, Lah number, Sum, Alternate sum, Orthogonal product, Natural sequence, Arithmetically progressive sequence, Recursion, Fibonacci number, upward diagonal, q-Gaussian coefficient.
