Puzzles | Arithmetical puzzles | Four 4's equal...

Use exactly four 4's to form every integer from 1 to 50, using only the operators '', '', '', '', '()' (brackets) (square), and '!' (factorial). The square and factorial operators should be used as sparingly as possible. If 44 (which is 4 x 10 + 4) can be avoided, avoid it. In this version of the problem, the square root operator is not allowed.
