Prof. Dan Friedman at Indiana University is famed among his students as
having a fascination with the factorial of 5. Indeed, they claim that
every answer on any of his questions or quizzes is already pre-determined
to be 120.

As it turns out, Dan knows what he is about: indeed, he knows the answer
to everything is factorial 5:

42=10⊥(2⍴29.5)⊤!5
1
