gollark: But can you prove it?
gollark: But what if you don't have a calculator and want the factorial of a number between 1 and 7 without the hard work of multiplying 4 by 3 by 2 by 1 and so on?
gollark: Convenient formula for factorials up to 7: x! = (x - 1) * -1 / 5040 * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) - x * (x - 1) * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 7) + x / 720 * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) + x * -1 / 120 * (x - 1) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) + x / 24 * (x - 1) * (x - 2) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) + x * -1 / 6 * (x - 1) * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 5) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) + x / 2 * (x - 1) * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 6) * (x - 7) + x * (x - 1) * (x - 2) * (x - 3) * (x - 4) * (x - 5) * (x - 6).
gollark: Desmos is nice when I have to plot things for whatever reason.
gollark: I have my phone around much more often than a calculator, but find my calculator generally better than my phone for doing much maths on. Probably because it has hardware buttons (I don't like typing on touchscreens) and software which makes many tasks easier than my phone's default calculator app.
