@Damodar Joshi In C++, the highest number you can represent by built in types is (2^64)-1, a 12 digit number. 33! has 37 digits... Thus exceeding the limit forces the number to become its one's or two's complement, which is used to represent negative numbers...

Can you share your code? It must be due to a value exceeding the maximal value of your type
