| Description |
The function 'fact' calculates the factorial of a number in an almost non-readable format. Therefore the program assumes that the overall result of a calculation is less than 170! although it involves calculation of factorial of numbers that are greater than 170.
This very simple code was written to solve the Problem 2.11 of "An Introduction to Thermal Physics" by D.V. Schroeder. The file 'example.m' uses the function 'fact.m' to solve the problem. |
