In this research, we continue studying limit theorems for combinatorial numbers satisfying a class of triangular arrays. Using the general results of Hwang and Bender, we obtain a constructive proof of the central limit theorem, specifying the rate of convergence to the limiting (normal) distribution, as well as a new proof of the local limit theorem for the numbers of the tribonacci triangle.

Consider a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials with success probability p. Let N(n; k1, k2) denote the number of times that k1 failures are followed by k2 successes among the first n Bernoulli trials. We employ the Stein-Chen method to obtain a total variation upper bound for the rate of convergence of N(n; k1, k2) to a suitable Poisson random variable. As a special case, the corresponding limit theorem is established. Similar results are obtained for Nk3(n; k1, k2), the number of times that k1 failures followed by k2 successes occur k3 times successively in n Bernoulli trials. The bounds obtained are generally sharper than, and improve upon, some of the already known results. Finally, the technique is adapted to obtain Poisson approximation results for the occurrences of the above-mentioned events under Markov-dependent trials.
