Q. about triangle A106239 (graphs with unicyclic components)

The example given says:
%e A106239 T(6,2)=10 because there are 10 such graphs of order 6 with 2
components. The value of T(n,m) is zero if and only if m > floor(n/3).

The table does give T(5,2)=0. It is T(6,2) that is 10; the offset is 1, so
the first entry is T(1, 1).
