The example uses 500:
(recursive-factorial 500)
The following paragraph, however, uses 1000:
In this example we did some simple arithmetic `(+ 20 35)' and got the
answer `55'. Then we coded the classic (and rather wasteful) factorial
algorithm, and got a glimpse of Scheme's nice _bignumbers_ by asking
for the factorial of 1000. Then we quit with `(quit)'.
