Quick Facts

  • β€’ 0! = 1 (by definition)
  • β€’ 1! = 1
  • β€’ n! grows very rapidly
  • β€’ 10! = 3,628,800

About Factorials

A factorial is the product of all positive integers less than or equal to a given number. It is denoted by n! and is fundamental in combinatorics, probability, and algebra.

For example, 5! = 5 Γ— 4 Γ— 3 Γ— 2 Γ— 1 = 120. Factorials grow extremely fast - 10! is already over 3 million!

Applications:

  • Counting permutations and arrangements
  • Probability calculations
  • Combinatorial problems
  • Series expansions in calculus

Formulas

Factorial:

n! = n Γ— (n-1) Γ— (n-2) Γ— ... Γ— 2 Γ— 1

0! = 1 (by definition)

Permutation:

nPr = n! / (n-r)!

Combination:

nCr = n! / (r! Γ— (n-r)!)
