| - | We can get rid of the double sum as follows: | + | See also [[Niemand sequences]]. |

| - | $ = \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\left(\prod_{j=0}^k\dfrac{n-j}{1+j}\right)(-z)^{-k} $ | + | |

| - | But note that here the summands depends on the upper bound of the sum and for this we can't take the limit $n\to \infty$ of the summand term anymore. | + | |

| - | There are some related sums, e.g. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | <code> | + | |
| - | expFactor[n_] = (n - (k - j))/(j*f[n]); | + | |
| - | invFactor[n_] = -(n - j)/(j + 1); | + | |
| - | Sum[Product[expFactor[n]*z, {j, 1, k}], {k, 0, n}] // Simplify | + | |
| - | Sum[Product[invFactor[n]*z, {j, 1, k}], {k, 0, n}] // Simplify | + | |
