Historical Context
The concept of factorials dates back to ancient Indian mathematics and was formally developed in the 17th and 18th centuries. Factorials became fundamental in the study of permutations, combinations, and probability theory. Mathematicians such as Christian Kramp helped popularize the notation n! that is universally used today in modern mathematics.
