Look up some information about BigNums.
An integer or long integer can only hold a vast amount of bits.

Do you know that 70! is a number with ~100 digits, 450! has more than 1000 digits and so on...
Are you sure that anybody thirsts for reading these huge numbers printed on console?..
Apropos, what for string Number was declared in Fact function?..
