Although I do enjoy blues/jazz (and pretty much all music)...sadly, that is not what this riddle is about. Good guess, though.

Alright, I'll do another WAI...I tend to make mine a little longer...so that may make this one pretty easy. Not sure: I'm the epitomy of greatness, Nothing else can compare. I'm a wonder to behold, often seen in a pair. I was born in Missouri But I've since travelled far, I've gone by boat and plane and truck, train, and car. I was shunned from society when I was just a teen I'm older and experienced now As I'm sure you have seen I'm the creator of music I'm a designer and artist. But these you most likely Were sure to have missed. Many are my parts But from one I have come Answer Who or what am I? And this riddle is done.

In mathematics "!" means "factorial"...in programming languages it is often used to mean "not", so that may be where your confusion is coming in...also, I agree, in the way it was posted it looks like they are saying "NOT EQUAL"...but it should be written (1 + 1 + 1)! = 6...or even slightly more separated ((1 + 1 + 1)!) = 6 Basically n! means n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * ... * 2 * 1 So, for example: 1! = 1 = 1 2! = 2 * 1 = 2 3! = 3 * 2 * 1 = 6 4! = 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 24 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120 6! = 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 720 ...etc...etc.. make sense? So, the answer posted (1 + 1 + 1)! = 3! = 3 * 2 * 1 = 6...which is a correct/valid solution.

Well, this one was started about 5 minutes before I left for work...so I didn't really have a chance to work on it...but I know the pattern, so, I think I might try to contribute a bit today...
