Factorial of a large Number

Given an integer N, find its factorial.

Example 1:
Input: N = 5
Output: 120
Explanation : 5! = 1*2*3*4*5 = 120

Example 2:
Input: N = 10
Output: 3628800
Explanation :
10! = 1*2*3*4*5*6*7*8*9*10 = 3628800

It is a MEDIUM LEVEL question, you must have calculated factorial of a number. But this question is a bit different, in this we have to calculate factorial of a large number.

Factorial of large numbers cannot be stored in int or long or long long. So in this case we use ArrayList or LinkedList to solve the question.

JAVA CODE

static ArrayList<Integer> factorial(int N){ //code here ArrayList<Integer> res=new ArrayList<>(); res.add(0,1); //adding 1 in the arraylist int size=1; int carry=0,val=2; while(val<=N) { for(int i=size-1;i>=0;i--) { int temp=res.get(i)*val + carry; //store the last digit at index and add remaining to carry res.set(i,temp%10); //update carry carry=temp/10; } while(carry!=0) { res.add(0,carry%10); carry=carry/10; size++; } val++; } return res; }
