/**
* Problem 20 - Factorial digit sum
*
* @see {@link https://projecteuler.net/problem=20}
*
* n! means n × (n 1) × ... × 3 × 2 × 1
*
* For example, 10! = 10 × 9 × ... × 3 × 2 × 1 = 3628800,
* and the sum of the digits in the number 10! is 3 + 6 + 2 + 8 + 8 + 0 + 0 = 27
*
* Find the sum of the digits in the number 100!
