The factorial of 17 can be solved on a scientific computer. But personal computers can't seem to handle so many numbers. A 32-bit computer can only run 2 32 at most. I don't understand a 64-bit computer, because I'm still using the software before 32-bit, and I don't know if I can run to 2 64 in the vs20 13 environment.
