Factorial Program in Python

What is Factorial Program?

Factorial Program in C: Factorial of n is the product of all positive descending integers. Factorial of n is denoted by n!. For example: 5! = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120.

How do you code a factorial for a loop in Python?

  1. num = int(input("enter a number: "))
  2. fac = 1.
  3. for i in range(1, num + 1):
  4. fac = fac * i.
  5. print("factorial of ", num, " is ", fac)

Factorial Program in Python

# Python program to find the factorial of a number provided by the user.

# change the value for a different result
num = 7

# 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)

Writing first python program

  We are here to write our first program,it will  be an easy program just printing the entered word or value. The syntax of python language is very simple and easy and you dont have to confuse your mind with any complexity. So here is our first program print ( "Hello my name is abc" ) print command is used to display the output written in brackets with inverted commas. As we have typed the sentence "Hello my name is abc". So this command will simply print this sentence as show above in the picture.  

Loop Statements

Loop STATEMENTS The Loop statements allow a set of instructions to be performed repeatedly until a certain condition is fulfilled. The iteration statements are also called loops or looping statements. THE FOR LOOP The for loop is the easiest to understand of the python loops. Syntax: For I in range(lowerlimit,upperlimit): Loop Body The program will run until I value becomes equal to upperlimit – 1. Example: For I in range(1,5): Print(“Hello”) This program will print Hello 4 times, ie from 1 to 4 (upper limit-1)  I value will start as 1 then loop body will get executed and I value will be incremented. This keeps on taking place until I ==upper limit-1 . After that the program comes out of loop body. THE WHILE LOOP The second loop available in python is the while loop. The while loop is an entry controlled loop. The syntax of a while loop is while (expression): Loop-body Where loop body keep on getting executed until the expression becomes false. When the expression becomes false, th...

Learning Python Basics

                           Python Basics What is VARIABLES in Python? As the name implies the meaning, a variable is something which can be change. A variable is a way of referring to a memory location used by a computer program. A variable is a symbolic name for this physical location. This memory location contains values, like numbers,text or more complicated types. Variables can be treated as a container which can store some value in it. In any other languages for example C++, This is how you write a variable int a = 20 Where int is data type of the variable. Int stands for integer. String refers to text or collection of characters. It is represented in single quotes or double quotes. Float refers to decimal point numbers. In Programming languages like C++ you have to specify the data type of a variable. But in python you don’t have to worry about data type. Whatever value  you give the variable, py...
