The cases should be flipped

    \begin{cases}
        0 & \text{ if } k \text{ is odd} \\
        \sigma^k (k-1)!! & \text{ if } k \text{ is even} 
    \end{cases}```

I think it's correct, isn't it? For example, consider k=1 or k=2.

In your solution you have k=6 (even) ~ 35, yet you say it should be zero.

k=1 is just E[X] - E[X] = 0
k=2 E[X - E[X]]^2 = Var(x) != 0

Sorry I corrected the code in my comment, didn't just quote.

Ah, sorry, now I'm with you. Thanks for picking up my silly error :-). I'll fix it.

I greatly appreciate your input @RaymondMcT. The lecture was written in a bit of a rush (see #817) so there might be other typos.
