If:

$W(0):=1$

$W(n):=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}({n-1 \choose i}W(i)(x-i-1)!(2^{x-i-1}))$

Then:

$W(n)=(2n-1)!!$

Let $W(n)=\sum_{i=1}^{n}(\binom{i-1}{n-1}W(i-1)(n-i)!(2^{n-i}))$

Assume that for some integer $x$ , $W(x)=(2x-1)!!$ . We intend to show that $W(x+1)=(2(x+1)-1)!!=(2x+1)!!$ .

$W(x+1)=\sum_{i=1}^{x+1}(\binom{i-1}{x}W(i-1)(x-i+1)!(2^{x-i+1}))$ $=\sum_{i=1}^{x+1}(\binom{i-1}{x-1}(\frac{x-i+1}{x})W(i-1)(x-i)!(x-i+1)(2^{x-i})(2))$ $=\sum_{i=1}^{x+1}(\binom{i-1}{x-1}W(i-1)(x-i)!(x-i+1)(2^{x-i})(2x))$ $=2x\sum_{i=1}^{x+1}(\binom{i-1}{x-1}W(i-1)(x-i)!(x-i+1)(2^{x-i}))$ $=2x[W(n)=\sum_{i=1}^{x}(\binom{i-1}{x-1}W(i-1)(x-i)!(2^{x-i}))+\binom{x}{x-1}W(x)(1)!(2)]$ $=2x[(2x-1)!!+\binom{x}{x-1}W(x)(1)!(2)]$ And this is where I'm stuck.
