factorial of negative one (-1)

I am working with differential equations of the higher roots of negative one. (dividing enormous numbers into other enormous numbers to come out with very reasonable numbers). I am mixing this in to a script for Maya (the final output is graph-able as a spiral.) I have heard that Sage

Arnaud Delobelle, 28.10.2010 20:38: using ~-n instead of n-1 if obfuscatory and doesn't even save keystrokes! (Although it could in other situations, e.g 2*(n-1) can be written 2*~-n, saving two brackets.) Sure, good call. And look, it's only slightly slower than the obvious code: $ python3 -
