Factorial-NX is a Nintendo Switch homebrew application developed by Zamacian to calculate the factorial of a given number. The purpose of this project is for the developer to learn the basics of libnx, a library used for developing homebrew applications for the Nintendo Switch. The application itself may not have much practical use, but it serves as a learning exercise for the developer.
The application has a limitation that it can only calculate factorials up to 25 due to the highest number the Switch supports being 2^63.
Commands
To make things easier, let's just say that the number you want to factor is called Jeffrey
- a to add 1 to Jeffrey
- b to subtract 1 from Jeffrey
- x or y to set Jeffrey to 0
- any trigger (r/l/zr/zl) to clear the console
- Minus (-) to factor Jeffrey
- Plus (+) to exit the Homebrew
- Everything else will show you the 'help' menu
What to know
The letter shown before the value of the number is what executed the action :
- (A) means you added 1 by pressing A
- (B) means you substracted 1 by pressing B
- (X) or (Y) means you set the number to 0 by pressing X or Y
Feel free to copy and distribute it as much as you want without any legal restrictions.
Could be optimized but then the code would be very ugly.
