Quicker Maths

A Combination Problem

Posted on December 4, 2009

Can you combine eight 8s with any other mathematical symbols except numbers so that they represent exactly one thousands?

You may use the plus, minus terms, and division signs as well as the factorial function and the Gamma function. You may also use the logarithms and the combinatorial symbol.
