I'm pretty new to the python programming and I am currently trying to create a factorial function which I have, but now I an trying to get it to list the positive integer n as input and then computes and outputs, in separate lines, 1!, 2!, 3!, ..., (n-1)!, n! and so. I have come up with a code that outputs n! already.
def factorial(n):
if n <= 1:
return 1
return n*factorial(n-1)any help will be greatly appreciated
Have you tried inserting a print statement into your function?
Easily done by not putting the recursive call into the return function, use temporary variable, something like this:
def factorialp(n):
if n < 1:
return 1
q = n*factorialp(n-1)
print "%d! = %d" % (n, q)
return q
factorialp(5)
"""
result -->
1! = 1
2! = 2
3! = 6
4! = 24
5! = 120
