    Come on. Think a little. In the other post, I said 3 things can be arranged in 3! Ways. How many ways can 5 things be arranged?

    I assume you know that the ! Means factorial and not that we're excited about the number 3:)

    The number of ways to arrange 5 objects is 5! That means 5*4*3*2*1=120

    1000! Would be 1000*999*998*997*... *1 which is a huge number.

    and so on. Now see?
