Factorial Calculator: Your Quick Number Cruncher

What Is This Tool?

The factorial calculator finds n factorial for any whole number from 0 to 170.

It gives the value. It shows the full multiplication sequence. It adds a step by step breakdown for small inputs.

It helps students and teachers. It helps anyone who needs a quick check.

• Input field: Enter a number. Type a whole number from 0 to 170.
• Default value: The box starts with 5 to show an example.

How to Use the Calculator

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Click the field labeled Enter a number.
2. Type a whole number between 0 and 170.
3. Click Calculate or press Enter.
4. Read the bold result that shows n! equals the final value.
5. Check the Expansion line to see the full chain with the × symbol.
6. For inputs from 2 to 10, review the step by step list.
7. For 11 or more, you will see a short note instead of steps.

What Happens Behind the Scenes?

The calculator multiplies downward from your number to 1.

Zero factorial and one factorial equal 1 by definition.

The tool formats big numbers with separators for easy reading.

For very large totals, it switches to scientific notation with two digits, for example 3.40e+18.

The Enter key runs the same action as the button.

For inputs above 10, it hides the step list to keep things readable.
