//Reference: Chapter 22
//Description:
//         Demonstration of high-precision integer arithmetic
//         with the BigInteger class. Program calculates the
//         factorial of a big integer number
//Requires:
//         Keyin class in current directory

public class BigIFact {
  public static void main(String[] args) {

    int v; // Input
    BigInteger p = BigInteger.valueOf(1); // Factor

    System.out.println("Big integer factorial routine\n");
    v = Keyin.inInt("Enter value: ");

    // Calculate factorial by iteration
    for (int i = 1; i <= v; i++)
      p = p.multiply(BigInteger.valueOf(i));
    // Display result
    System.out.println(p);
  }
