Stirling numbers (thing)

stirling numbers of the second kind are used to determine how many ways an n-set can be partitioned into m non-empty subsets. it goes a little something like this..

                                    m
     0      1      2      3      4      5      6      7      8      9..

these numbers are also sometimes represented in a triangle, since half the chart is empty where m > n, that is, where the number of partitions is 0. how do you get these numbers (if, for example, you wanted to fill in row 10)? a general rule for filling in the chart is S(n,m) = (n-1,m-1) + m(n-1,m).
