-main `README.md` file where `xx-XX` is [locale and country/region codes](http://www.lingoes.net/en/translator/langcode.htm).
+- Create new `README.xx-XX.md` file with translation alongside with main `README.md` file where `xx-XX` is [locale and country/region codes](http://www.lingoes.net/en/translator/langcode.htm).
 For example `en-US`, `zh-CN`, `zh-TW`, `ko-KR` etc.
 - You may also translate all other sub-folders by creating 
 related `README.xx-XX.md` files in each of them.

+In mathematics, the factorial of a non-negative integer `n`,
+denoted by `n!`, is the product of all positive integers less
+than or equal to `n`. For example:
+
+```
+5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120
+```
+
+| n   |                n! |
+| --- | ----------------: |
+| 0   |                 1 |
+| 1   |                 1 |
+| 2   |                 2 |
+| 3   |                 6 |
+| 4   |                24 |
+| 5   |               120 |
+| 6   |               720 |
