I am trying to calculate the value of 100!. I need all of the
digits. ColdFusion gives me:
digits. ColdFusion gives me:
9.33262154445E+157
When what I want is:
93326215443944152681699238856266700490715968264381621
46859296389521759999322991560894146397615651828625369
7920827223758251185210916864000000000000000000000000
My code is:
function factorial(n)
{
if (n == 1) return 1;
return n * factorial(n - 1);
}
I tried using PrecisionEvaluate but can't seem to get what I need.
