NAME

A function based on a factorial recursively exponentiated.

Factorials successively exponentiated.

COMMENTS

A sequence I found playing with exponents and recursion. Generates big numbers fast, for a(5) Mathematica returns an overflow error.

a(5) > 10^(10^50).

FORMULA

a(0) = 1; a(n) = n!^a(n - 1) starting with a(0)=0!=1).

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 36 because 3!^!^(2!^!^(1!^1 = 0!)) = 36

KEYWORD

easy,nonn,uned,new
