faktoriaalisissa
Faktoriaalisissa is a theoretical construct in combinatorial mathematics and theoretical computer science used to characterize growth patterns in problems where the size of the problem space or the required resources grows according to a factorial function of a parameter n. In this framework, a system is said to behave faktoriaalisissa when the dominant term in complexity, space, or enumeration is proportional to n!.
The term is derived from the Finnish faktoriaali for factorial, with the locative suffix -issa indicating a
Formal characteristics include Theta(n!) growth in the number of configurations, arrangements, or sequences as a function
Examples and implications: enumerating all permutations of n distinct items, generating all possible orderings, or brute-forcing
