[39] [40] The factorial number system is a mixed radix notation for numbers in which the place values of each digit are factorials. [ 41 ] Factorials are used extensively in probability theory , for instance in the Poisson distribution [ 42 ] and in the probabilities of random permutations . [ 43 ]
The factorial number system is sometimes defined with the 0! place omitted because it is always zero (sequence A007623 in the OEIS). In this article, a factorial number representation will be flagged by a subscript "!". In addition, some examples will have digits delimited by a colon. For example, 3:4:1:0:1:0! stands for
Let be a natural number. For a base >, we define the sum of the factorials of the digits [5] [6] of , :, to be the following: = =!. where = ⌊ ⌋ + is the number of digits in the number in base , ! is the factorial of and
The falling factorial can be extended to real values of using the gamma function provided and + are real numbers that are not negative integers: = (+) (+) , and so can the rising factorial: = (+) . Calculus

However, continuing claims, the total number of Americans collecting jobless benefits, rose by 36,000 to 1.91 million for the week of Nov. 9. That was higher than expected and the most in three years.
Towana Looney, 53, is recovering after undergoing kidney surgery — using the organ from a genetically manipulated pig — on Nov. 25 at NYU Langone Health in New York City
For each of the values of n from 2 to 30, the following table shows the number (n − 1)! and the remainder when (n − 1)! is divided by n. (In the notation of modular arithmetic, the remainder when m is divided by n is written m mod n.) The background color is blue for prime values of n, gold for composite values.
