Coefficient of `x^(18)` in `(1+x+2x^(2)+3x^(3)+…+18x^(18))^(2)`
=Coefficient of `x^(18)` in `(1+x+2x^(2)+3x^(3)+..+18x^(18))xx(1+x+2x^(2)+3x^(3)+..+18x^(18))`
`=1xx18+1xx17+2xx16+..+17xx1+18xx1`
`=36+(1xx17+2xx16+..+17xx1)`
`=36+sum_(r=1)^(17)r(18-r)=36+18sum_(r=1)^(17)r-sum_(r=1)^(17)r^(2)`
`=36+18(17(18))/2-(17(18)(35))/6`
=1005
