COMMENT

Sum[ k!, {k,0,n} ] = n! + !n = !(n+1) = A003422(n+1), where !n is left factorial !n = Sum[ k!, {k,0,n-1} ] = A003422(n) = {0, 1, 2, 4, 10, 34, 154, 874, 5914, 46234, 409114, 4037914, ...}. Left factorials are even for n>1. Corresponding primes of the form (k!+!k)/2 = (a(n)!+!a(n))/2 are listed in A124374(n) = A003422[a(n)+1]/2 = {2, 5, 17, 2957, 23117, 204557, 2018957, 4578979328975537786697650470157,...}.

A near-duplicate of A100614: a(n) = A100614(n) - 1. - Ryan Propper (rpropper(AT)cs.stanford.edu), Feb 07 2008
