文摘The main aim of the article is to investigate the irrational and transcendental properties of certain real numbers by means of the factorial series and the factorial number system. The difference between the factorial series and the factorial system is that the factorial series does not set an upper bound at a given place after the radix point, while in the factorial system (i – 1) is the maximal possible value for r<sub>i</sub> after the radix point.
