Question : |
What is a 'Sub-Factorial' ? |
Answer : |
To find the sub-factorial of an integer, supposing 'n' is the integer the sub-factorial of
n = n! x ((1/2)! - (1/3)! + (1/4)! . . . ((-1)n) / n!)
|
For example the sub-factorial of 4 :
= 4! ((1/2)! - (1/3)! + (1/4)!)
= 24 ((1/2) - (1/6) + (1/24))
= 9
