Look up -ial in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
In mathematics, and more particularly in number theory, primorial, denoted by "pn#", is a function from natural numbers to natural numbers similar to the factorial function, but rather than successively multiplying positive integers, the function only multiplies prime numbers.
The name "primorial", coined by Harvey Dubner, draws an analogy to primes similar to the way the name "factorial" relates to factors.
