Given a positive integer N. The task is to compute the sum of factorial from 1! to N!, 1! + 2! + 3! + … + N!.
Examples:
Input: N = 5
Output: 153
Explanation: 1! + 2! + 3! + 4! + 5! = 1 + 2 + 6 + 24 + 120 = 153.Input: N = 1
Output: 1
Naive Approach: The basic way to solve this problem is to find the factorial of all numbers till 1 to N and calculate their sum.
#include<bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std;
// Function to find the factorial of a number int findFact( int num) {
// Base case: 0! and 1! are both 1
if (num == 0 || num == 1)
return 1;
// Initialize result to 1 and multiply by each number from 2 to num
long long result = 1;
for ( int i = 2; i <= num; i++) {
result *= i;
}
// Return the factorial result
return result;
} // Function to find the sum of factorials from 1! to N! int findFactSum( int N) {
// Initialize sum to 0
int sum = 0;
// Iterate from 1 to N and add the factorial of each number to the sum
for ( int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
sum += findFact(i);
}
// Return the sum of factorials
return sum;
} int main() {
// Example usage with N = 5
int N = 5;
// Display the sum of factorials from 1! to N!
cout << findFactSum(N) << endl;
return 0;

// Function to find the factorial of a number

for ( int i = 2 ; i <= num; i++) {

Time Complexity: O(N^2)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
Approach: An efficient approach is to calculate factorial and sum in the same loop making the time O(N). Traverse the numbers from 1 to N and for each number i:
- Multiply i with previous factorial (initially 1).
- Add this new factorial to a collective sum
At the end, print this collective sum. Below is the implementation of the above approach.
// C++ program to compute sum of series // 1! + 2! + 3! + ... + N! #include <iostream> using namespace std;
// Function to return sum // of 1!, 2! upto N! int findFactSum( int N)
{ // Initializing the variables
int f = 1, Sum = 0;
// Calculate the factorial and sum
// in the same loop
for ( int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
f = f * i;
Sum += f;
}
// Return Sum as the final result.
return Sum;
} // Driver Code int main()
{ int N = 5;
// Function call
cout << findFactSum(N);
return 0;
