The mathematical sorcery on display here is actually pure genius! This equation uses factorial notation (the exclamation marks) to create a mind-bending result. Since 0! equals 1 in mathematics (yes, really), we have (1+1)^(1+1) × (1+1)^(1+1) = 2^2 × 2^2 = 4 × 4 = 16. The beauty is in how it looks completely nonsensical with all those exclamation marks, yet perfectly resolves to 16 when you know the factorial rule. It's the mathematical equivalent of speaking in code that only the initiated understand. The calculator is just sitting there like "yep, checks out" while the rest of humanity questions their sanity.
