We show that q-hypergeometric identities Ý F n, k s 1 can be proved by k checking that they are correct for only finitely many, N say, values of n. We give a specific a priori formula for N, as a polynomial of degree 24 in the parameters of Ž . F n, k . We see this because of the presence of ''q'',
