. We're sorry about the hassle.
We can also use Stirling 's approximation.

what do you do of the big O term? btw i used it too.
Same thing here. Good solution.
We can also use Cesaro's lemma with u n = n n n ! then u n u n + 1 = ( 1 − n + 1 1 ) n which tends to e − 1 and we're done
Fascinating solution.Very nicely done.
Did the same way................btw I thought it was called Cauchy's second limit theorem
The inequalities I often find useful are (
e
n
)^n <n!<(
e
n
)^(n+1)
(
e
n
)^n<n!<(
e
n
)^(n+1)
These gives
n
n
!
(
1
/
n
)
→1/e
((1+
n
1
)^(1/n)<e<(1+
n
1
)^(n+1))
