Hypergeometric pFq

Let $p,q \in \{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ and $a_j,b_{\ell} \in \mathbb{R}$ for $j=1,\ldots,p$ and $\ell=1,\ldots,q$. We will use the notation $\vec{a}=\displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^p a_j$ and $\vec{b}=\displaystyle\prod_{\ell=1}^q b_{\ell}$ and we define the notations $$\vec{a}^{\overline{k}} = \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^p a_j^{\overline{k}},$$ and $$\vec{a}+k = \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^p (a_j+k),$$ (and similar for $\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}$). Define the generalized hypergeometric function $${}_pF_q(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_p;b_1,\ldots,b_q;t)={}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t)=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\dfrac{\displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^p a_j^{\overline{k}}}{\displaystyle\prod_{\ell=1}^q b_{\ell}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!}.$$
