The factorial of n, denoted n!, is the product of all positive integers up to n (e.g., 5!=120). Factorials appear in permutations, combinations (nCr = n! / [r!(n-r)!]), and expansions. For large n, the numbers grow rapidly. Factorials are key to gamma functions, probability distributions (Poisson), and combinatorial logic. Understanding them fosters quick problem-solving in arrangement tasks, advanced series expansions, or bridging to continuous extensions in advanced calculus or physics contexts.
