Well, we attacked the country to the east, spent a trillion dollars, and failed to achieve our objective.
Then we attacked the country to the west, spent a trillion dollars, and failed to achieve our objective.
Why not complete the hat trick? Granted, with inflation, it will probably cost two trillion. But in the end, we'll get the same result - failing to achieve our objective.
Factorial means n! = (n)(n-1)(n-2)... etc. down to 1, where n is a positive integer. It's used to calculate the different number of configurations of a set of elements, mainly in combinatorics.
Like if you have four different objects and you want to know how many different configurations you can order them in, you have four choices for the first object, then three for the second, then two for the third, then one for the final slot. So the answer is 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24 = 4!.
Yeah, let's take a technology already known for filling in gaps with invented nonsense and use that as our new training paradigm.
