Search: id:A085700 Results 1-1 of 1 results found. %I A085700 %S A085700 2,4,26,112,365,449,453 %N A085700 Numbers n such that (2n)!-(2n-2)!+(2n-4)!-...+(-1)^n 0! is prime. %C A085700 There is no further term up to 1000. Consider that 3 divides n!+(n-1)!+(n-2)!+...+1! (n > 1), so this number is composite for n > 2. Also 5 divides n!-(n-1)!+...+(-1)^n*1! for n > 2, so this number is composite for n > 3. %e A085700 4 is in the sequence because 8!-6!+4!-2!+1 =39623 is prime. %t A085700 Do[If[PrimeQ[Sum[(-1)^(n-k)(2k)!, {k, 0, n}]], Print[n], {n, 1000}] %Y A085700 Cf.
