Extra Long Factorials HackerRank Solution in C, C++, Java, Python

The factorial of the integer n, written n!, is defined as:

Calculate and print the factorial of a given integer.

For example, if n=30, we calculate 30*29*28*….*2*1 and get .

Function Description

Complete the extraLongFactorials function in the editor below. It should print the result and return.

extraLongFactorials has the following parameter(s):

n: an integer

Note: Factorials of n>20 can’t be stored even in a 64-bit long long variable. Big integers must be used for such calculations. Languages like Java, Python, Ruby etc. can handle big integers, but we need to write additional code in C/C++ to handle huge values.

We recommend solving this challenge using BigIntegers.

Input Format

Input consists of a single integer n

Constraints

1<=n<=100

Output Format

Print the factorial of n.

Sample Input

25
