Sorry if I was unclear.
Suyono had already suggested "The fifth term is 4!!! = 24!! = approx.
(6.20448E+23)!", Zara had said he was thinking along those lines, and
you made your suggestion which (although written slightly
differently) was numerically the same!
When I said you were all close, that meant that you had not worked
out the fifth term yet.
Your tummy will have to rumble a little longer... :-)
