COMMENTS

If you have two recursions ( addition and multiplication):

a(0)=-1;a(n)=2*n-1+a(n-1);a(n)=n*(n+1)/2;

and

b(0)=1;b(n)=(2*n-1)*a(n-1):a(n)=n!;

then you can form a function F such that:

F((2*n-1)!!)=n^2-1.

FORMULA

{n^2 - 1, (2*n - 1)!!}

MATHEMATICA

Clear[a, b, n];

Flatten[Table[{n^2 - 1, (2*n - 1)!!}, {n, 1, 20}]]

(*addition*)

a[0] = -1; a[n_] := a[n] = (2*n - 1) + a[n - 1];

Table[a[n] - (n^2 - 1), {n, 0, 20}]

(*multiplication*)

b[0] = 1; b[n_] := b[n] = (2*n - 1)*b[n - 1];

Table[b[n] - (2*n - 1)!!, {n, 0, 20}]
