Determine the remainder when 1004! is divided by 2011.

Thanks

Check whether 2011 is a prime or not. If it isn't, the
answer is easy to deduce. If it is (as I suspect), then
one has to resort to Wilson's theorem (and basic facts about
finite fields). Hint: 1004 is very close to half of 2010.

It is prime as quickly shown by using Excel.
