Remarks on a sum containing factorials (Q1612323)

The author shows that certain general summation formulas that can be found in the book by \textit{A. P. Prudnikov}, \textit{Yu. A. Brychkov} and \textit{O. I. Marichev} [Integrals and Series, Vol. 4: Direct Laplace Transforms (Gordon and Breach, New York) (1992; Zbl 0786.44003)] imply in a straight manner an identity for a sum containing factorials and double factorials, proved recently by \textit{A. A. Samoletov} [J. Comput. Appl. Math. 131, 503--504 (2001; Zbl 1064.33008)].
