![Π_(i=1) ^n i!=1×(1×2)×...×(1×2×...×n) =1^n 2^(n−1) 3^(n−2) ...(n−1)^2 n ∴ Π_(i=1) ^n i!=Π_(i=1) ^n (n−i+1)^i The above is only for i∈Z What about: Π_(i=1) ^n Γ(i+1) where i∉Z](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q3204.png)

![In the product you are starting with i=1 and going up to n. Generally it is increment by 1 so i∈Z.](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q3208.png)
