I am trying to find my way through a problem involving inverse numbers, for a game.
I need to reduce the number of calculations of the following product:
$\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{1}{3}\times \dots \times\frac{1}{n}$
with n being variable. I wondered if there were a fastest way than calculating every inverse.
Question:
is there a known formula to help?
Note: I am not asking for a programming algorithm, just a theoretical one, an idea.
In advance, thank you,
Edit:
the result must be precise to the closest natural.
