About Factorials

Definition
n! is the product of all positive integers from 1 to n. Formally: n! = n × (n−1) × … × 2 × 1.
Base cases
0! = 1 and 1! = 1. These are the foundations for the recursive formula n! = n × (n−1)!.
Combinatorics
n! counts the number of ways to arrange n distinct objects in a row (permutations).
Growth rate
Factorials grow faster than exponential functions. 20! already exceeds 2.4 quintillion.
Big-number support
This tool uses JavaScript BigInt for exact integer arithmetic with no rounding, handling hundreds or thousands of digits.
Trailing zeros
The number of trailing zeros in n! equals ⌊n/5⌋ + ⌊n/25⌋ + ⌊n/125⌋ + … (factors of 5 in the product).
About

A factorial calculator lets you compute n! — the product of all positive integers from 1 to n — instantly and exactly. Unlike floating-point tools, this calculator uses JavaScript BigInt arithmetic so every digit is correct, no matter how large n gets. Enter any non-negative integer to see the full result, its digit count, and a clear step-by-step multiplication table showing how the answer is built.

FAQ
What is a factorial?+

The factorial of a non-negative integer n, written n!, is the product of all positive integers from 1 up to n. For example, 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120. By convention, 0! = 1.

How big can n get?+

This tool supports n up to 10,000. At that size, 10000! has over 35,000 digits. Results are computed with exact BigInt arithmetic — there is no floating-point rounding or scientific-notation approximation.

Why does 0! equal 1?+

0! = 1 by convention, defined as the empty product (the product of no numbers). This is consistent with combinatorics: there is exactly one way to arrange zero items, and it keeps the recursive formula n! = n × (n−1)! valid at n = 1.

Where are factorials used?+

Factorials appear in combinatorics (counting permutations and combinations), probability theory, calculus (Taylor series), and computer science algorithms. For instance, the number of ways to arrange n distinct objects in a row is exactly n!.
