  • S spin vector

    You need to use Stirling's formula, which asymptotically goes as n^n e^(-n). I'd prob take the log of this as a first calculation, or do something to avoid the n^n.

    In fact, n^n e^(-n) = exp( n ln(n) - n ), so calculate the argument and take the exponential (natural).

      int i,f; f=1; string factorial=""; for (i=1; i<=1000;i++) { f= f*i; factorial = f.ToString(); //additional /*if(i==33) { break; } */ } this.label1.Text = factorial; but u can get factorial until 33 otherwise 1000! gives u result 0 (zero) _____________________ Proud to be Albanian _____________________

        We don't do your homework. Where exactly are you stuck? Just a hint: look up the term "faculty" in google. regards

                      You think his students should cheat? I feel he is being kind! I wait till the end of the semester before telling them I caught them cheating and then fail them.

                                That's virtually an absurd comment. The guy didn't give a type, so I might guess a double (or long would be better). Moreover, the leading coefficietly are easily googlable. If he wants all the digits down to the decimal point then that's a completely different problem. ;P

                                  The answer to 1000! is a whole number. So my comment still stands. Stirling's formula approximates the actual value (albeit a very good approximation) - there is some error involved.
