Actually I'm not sure I have any O(n!) algorithms. There are two places I could have. One of them I capped n, the other I sped up to 2^n n^2

@DRMacIver Don't both of those tend to exponential? Vague memories of Stirling's approximation from a STEP paper we probably both did... ;)1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@propensive Gosh no. n! is ridiculously superexponential. It's like n^n with some tiny baby exponential dampening factor.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@DRMacIver And a little actual thought rather than vague memory says, "yeah, you're obviously right".1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@propensive Yeah, it's easy to see that for n > m you have n! > m! m^{n - m}, so n! grows faster than any exponential.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@DRMacIver Yep. I quit maths for compsci after two years. It was "vague" before, and has remained so, alas. (And likely always will, now.)
