What Is Factorial?
A factorial is displayed by an integer and an exclamation symbol. In arithmetic, factorial is a multiplication function of natural numbers .
It multiplies the number by every noreal number that is less than it .
Symbolically, it is represented as "!".
The function is used, among other things, to get the "n" way pieces can be structured .
Factorial Formula
To find the factorial of any given number, change the exact value for n in the given equation :
n! = n × (n-1) × (n-2) × (n-3) × ….× 3 × 2 × 1
The expansion of the formula gives the numbers to be multiplied together with each other to have the factorial of the number.
We can also calculate a factorial from the prior one. The factorial of any number is that number times the factorial of (that number minus 1).
So the rule is : n! = n × (n−1)!
Example :
59! Factorial =
59 x 58 x 57 x 56 x ... x 3 x 2 x 1 =
59 × 58! =
