Write a program to calculate factorial of a number. in python code example

Example 1: factorial in python

def factorial(n):
    if n == 0:
        return 1
    else:
        return n * factorial(n-1)
n=int(input("Input a number to compute the factiorial : "))
print(factorial(n))

Example 2: factorial in python using for loop

# change the value for a different result
num = int(input('enter a number'))
# To take input from the user
#num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
factorial = 1
# check if the number is negative, positive or zero
if num < 0:
   print("Sorry, factorial does not exist for negative numbers")
elif num == 0:
   print("The factorial of 0 is 1")
else:
   for i in range(1,num + 1):
       factorial = factorial*i
   print("The factorial of",num,"is",factorial)
