 * @brief Algorithm to find largest x such that p^x divides n! (factorial) using Legendre's Formula.
 * @details Given an integer n and a prime number p, the task is to find the largest x such that 
 * p^x (p raised to power x) divides n! (factorial). This will be done using Legendre's formula:
 * x = [n/(p^1)] + [n/(p^2)] + [n/(p^3)] + \ldots + 1
 * @see more on https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/141196/highest-power-of-a-prime-p-dividing-n
