Calculate the multifactorial 4!!

We have 2 exclamation symbols (!)

Start at 4

Iterate backwards in steps of 2

Stop when we hit 1 or below

Term 1

For term 1, we start with 4

Term 2

Subtract -1 x 2 = -2 to get n(n - -2)

(n - -2) → 4 - -2 = 2
Our factorial term is:
4(2)

Build final multifactorial:

4!! = n(n - -2)...

4!! = 4(2)

Final Answer


4!! = 8
