You are given an integer ‘N’. You have to print the value of Factorial of ‘N’. The Factorial of a number ‘N’ is defined as the product of all numbers from 1 to ‘N’.

For Example:
Consider if ‘N’ = 4, the Factorial of 4 will be the product of all numbers from 1 to 4, which is 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 = 24. Hence, the answer is 24.
Problem approach

We will calculate the factorial of the given number and store it in the form of an array of digits named digits. To do this, we will define a function multiply(digits, x) that will multiply the number corresponding to the digits array with x and update the digits array with the product’s value. 
We will initialize the digits array with 1 and multiply it with all numbers from 2 to N using the multiply function. At last, we will print the digits array.

You are provided with the two strings named X and Y respectively. Y has its own specific order and has no repeating characters. Your task is to arrange the characters of the first string i.e. X in such a way that the order of characters in X is exactly the same as in Y, which means if ‘d’ occurs after ‘c’ in Y then it should also occur after ‘c’ in X ( obviously if X has ‘d’ and ‘c’ as characters in it ). All you have to do is, convert string X in the specific order with respect to string Y.

Note :

Both the strings have only lowercase English alphabets. 
There may be more than one correct solution, you have to return any one of the possible solutions.
Problem approach

The idea is to follow the order in which the characters occur in string Y. We have to run two nested loops on strings Y and X respectively and if Yi is the same as Xj then pick this character and add it to the answer string.
For the remaining characters of X that are not in the string Y, we have to just add those characters in our answer string. To find those remaining characters we can create a vector of visited characters or a hash set.
