More generally, the following sums are equal:
(1) Sum_{n>=0} (q^n + p)^n * r^n/n!,
(2) Sum_{n>=0} q^(n^2) * exp(p*q^n*r) * r^n/n!;
here, q = (1+x) and p = -1, r = 2.
In general, let F(x) be a formal power series in x such that F(0)=1, then
Sum_{n>=0} m^n * F(q^n*r)^p * log( F(q^n*r) )^n / n! =
Sum_{n>=0} r^n * [y^n] F(y)^(m*q^n + p);
here, F(x) = exp(x), q = 1+x, p = -1, r = 2, m = 1.

FORMULA
E.g.f. may be expressed by the following sums.
(1) Sum_{n>=0} ((1+x)^n - 1)^n * 2^n / n!.
(2) Sum_{n>=0} (1+x)^(n^2) * exp(-2*(1+x)^n) * 2^n / n!.
