Factorial of a Number

Understanding Factorial of a Number

The factorial of a non-negative integer n, denoted by n!, is the product of all positive integers less than or equal to n. By convention, the value of 0! is 1. It is not defined for negative numbers, and it's usage is widely seen in permutations, combinations, and binomial theorem.

Parameter usage:

• n = a non-negative integer for which we want to compute the factorial.

Output:

The function returns the factorial value of the provided integer n.

Data validation

An error is returned if the input is not a non-negative integer.

Summary

The calculator computes the factorial value for a given non-negative integer value. It is a fundamental function in combinatorics and helps in calculating combinations and permutations.
