Swift 3计算阶乘数.结果变得太高了？

Question

我写了这个函数来返回给定数字的阶乘

func factorial(_ n: Int) -> Int {
    if n == 0 {
        return 1
    }
    else {
        return n * factorial(n - 1)
    }
}

print( factorial(20) )  // 2432902008176640000

只要给定的数字不超过20,就可以正常工作,因为那样结果会变得太高？

我如何规避这个限制,从而计算出更高数字的阶乘？

我已经四处搜索并找到了Swift的一些bignum库,我这样做是为了学习并熟悉Swift,因此我想自己解决这个问题.

Answer 1

这是一种可以让您找到非常大的因子的方法.

将大数字表示为数字数组.比如说987会[9, 8, 7].将该数字乘以整数n需要两个步骤.

1. 将该数组中的每个值乘以n.
2. 执行进位操作以返回再次为单位数的结果.

例如987 * 2:

let arr = [9, 8, 7]
let arr2 = arr.map { $0 * 2 }
print(arr2)  // [18, 16, 14]

现在,执行进位操作.从一个数字开始,14太大了,所以保持4并携带1.添加1到16拿到17.

[18, 17, 4]

重复十个地方:

[19, 7, 4]

然后有百位:

[1, 9, 7, 4]

最后,对于打印,您可以将其转换回字符串:

let arr = [1, 9, 7, 4]
print(arr.map(String.init).joined())

应用该技术,这是一个carryAll执行进位操作的函数,并factorial使用它来计算非常大的阶乘:

func carryAll(_ arr: [Int]) -> [Int] {
    var result = [Int]()

    var carry = 0
    for val in arr.reversed() {
        let total = val + carry
        let digit = total % 10
        carry = total / 10
        result.append(digit)
    }

    while carry > 0 {
        let digit = carry % 10
        carry = carry / 10
        result.append(digit)
    }

    return result.reversed()
}



func factorial(_ n: Int) -> String {
    var result = [1]
    for i in 2...n {
        result = result.map { $0 * i }
        result = carryAll(result)
    }

    return result.map(String.init).joined()
}

print(factorial(1000))
