I'm afraid I don't understand your question. An array holds multiple values, but 1,000 factorial is a single value. You want an array to hold all the numbers used to calculate it?


my @factors = ( 1..1000 );

We could then calculate the answer with:

my $factorial = 1;
$factorial *= $_ foreach @factors;

It's probably easier to leave out to array though:

my $factorial = 1;
$factorial *= $_ foreach 1..1000;

Any of this helping you?
