Factorial
Factorial says to multiply all whole numbers from the chosen number down to 1.
The symbol is "!"
Examples:
4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24
7! = 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 5040

Fibonacci Numbers
Fibonacci numbers are created starting with 1 and 1, then get the next number in the list and adds the previous two numbers. Say, 1+1 =2 and then adds 1+2 you get 3, then adds 2+3 gives 5, then 3+5 gives 8 and so on.
Finite
Not infinite. Has an end. Could be measured, or given a value.
Example:
There are a finite number of people at a beach.
There are also a finite number of grains of sand at a beach. Hard to count but still finite!
And the length of a beach is also finite.
For infinite or infinity please use search bar or alphabet index above
