I wrote a computer program to automatically search for solutions. The first integer it couldn't find a solution for was >! 462 Here's it's full output for all integers from 0 to 500. There are only two integers in that range it can't find solutions for. Solutions are ordered by fewest bits used, then by fewest zeros used as a tiebreaker. `s` represents square root. 0: 0 1: 0! 2: 0!+0! 3: 11 4: 100 5: 101 6: 11! 7: 11!+0! 8: 100!! 9: 100!!+0! 10: 1010 11: s(101!+0!) 12: (11!)/.1 13: 1101 14: 101!!-(0!) 15: 101!!

The solver can be found here: https://github.com/isaacg1/eight-bits/ Caveats: * The solver does not consider intermediate steps with value above 65535. * The solver does not consider intermediate steps with negative value. I believe intermediate steps with negative value should never be necessary. * The solver does not consider intermediate steps with fractional value. Literals with fractional value are used, but intermediate steps with fractional value are not. I believe that my solver finds all possible solutions that do not go through one of the above three cases.
