Sir, I must warn you—stay away from the adorable naga!

Also, this guy is undeniably a menace. He's wearing a hoodie with 666! (666 factorial) on it, and that number is far too colossal to be taken lightly.

To put it into perspective:
  • 666! has 1,645 digits. That’s astronomically larger than the estimated total number of atoms in the observable universe, which is a number with roughly 80 digits.

  • If you wrote each digit of 666! in a 1mm font, the resulting string of digits would stretch over 1.6 meters.

  • Trying to compute 666! on a standard computer without specialized algorithms? Forget it—you’d run out of memory long before you reached the result.
This guy isn’t just rocking a math flex; he’s radiating danger!

Thanks for the chapter!

Me when 0.001 m (a.k.a. 1 mm) * 1645 = 1.645 m, not km

At least it's not Graham's Number or TREE(3) or SSCG(3)...

Or, he gets his ass handed to him by a veteran in 10 pages or less. Getting a custom hoodie with some arbitrary alphanumeric string written on it is neither difficult nor expensive.

I just decided to treat the "666!" printed on his hoodie as 666 factorial for the sake of a joke. It’s clear that the "666!" is meant to signify that he’s evil, since 666 is one of the most widely recognized symbols of the devil. The "!" is just there for emphasis, adding a bit of extra flair. I just thought it was funny that the author chose to put "666!" on his hoodie to express that the guy is evil—so I figured, why not throw in a math twist?

I calculated that using Python's math.factorial function, and then just for the heck of it implemented factorial myself using recursion. That's got to be about the least efficient way anyone would reasonably try to do a factorial, and it calculated it before I can blink. You would have trouble with this with most languages because usually they default to a fixed-size integer that won't be nearly big enough, but they'll still have a datatype in their standard library that can handle it.
