Are these sequences a permutation of the positive integers
and a permutation of the integers >=2?

These triangles remind me of sequence A064413 (the EKG sequence) and
sequence A089088.
(Showing sequence A064413 is a permutation of the positive integers is
more tricky than showing sequence A089088 is a permutation, or so I
have
been led to believe.)

thanks,
Leroy Quet
