factorial problem
Hello,

How do one handle the factorial of 10,000 in memory, the solution provided in c or c++?

Thanks.

Hi omuyelijah,

One way is to build an indexed array the elements of which points to the answers allocated in memory expressed in terms of strings. Of course, build it from the bottom up. The array could be either an array or built from a list of elements.

Either C or C++ should work, and would need some nominal amount of memory in which to execute.
