How to prove that $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty} \frac{n!}{n^2}$ diverges to infinity? $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty} \dfrac{n!}{n^2} \rightarrow \lim\limits_{n\to\infty}\dfrac{\left(n-1\right)!}{n}$
I can understand that this will go to infinity because the numerator grows faster.  
I am trying to apply L'Hôpital's rule to this; however, have not been able to figure out how to take the derivative of $\left(n-1\right)!$ 
So how does one take the derivative of a factorial?  

Notice L'Hopital's rule is a theorem that applies to continuous functions, thus if you want to apply L'Hopital's Rule to a sequence you'll have to invoke something like the Stolz–Cesàro theorem unless you want to start invoking logarithmic derivatives & Euler Mascheroni constants etc...
An easier method is to apply the sequence equivalent of D'Alembert's ratio test (Theorem V P147) without needing to resort to any series argument, something that generalizes Puzzled's 'trick'. If you're willing to accept the statement and proof given in the link then the following argument should be enough:
$\underset{n \rightarrow \infty}{\lim} \frac{f(n+1)}{f(n)} = \underset{n \rightarrow \infty}{\lim}  \frac{\frac{(n+1)!}{(n+1)^2}}{\frac{n!}{n^2}}  = \underset{n \rightarrow \infty}{\lim}  \frac{(n+1)!}{(n+1)^2}\frac{n^2}{n!} =  \underset{n \rightarrow \infty}{\lim}  \frac{(n+1)n^2}{(n+1)^2}  =  \underset{n \rightarrow \infty}{\lim}  \frac{n^2}{(n+1)} = \infty $
Thus we see the sequence diverges.
