Perhaps this is a foolish question to those still taking math...But is it even possible to distribute such a goal?..In order to calculate n! you need (n-1)!, so if (n-2)! is known, and your computer is working on (n-1)!, how would mine work on n!?..

e is the summation of 1/n! to infinity starting at zero so 1 + 1 + 1/6 + 1/24 + 1/120 etc. so anyway it really isn't dependent on the others to calculate the various fractions to bring it togher to e in the summation yes everything is dependent on everything else
