x!!=x(x−2)!!,x∈N  0!!=1  1!!=1  6!!=6×4×2×0!!=6×4×2=48  5!!=5×3×1=15
$${x}!!={x}\left({x}−\mathrm{2}\right)!!,{x}\in\mathbb{N} \\ $$$$\mathrm{0}!!=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}!!=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}!!=\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{0}!!=\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{48} \\ $$$$\mathrm{5}!!=\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{15} \\ $$
