Factorial of a input number by using loop and recursive functions in Python

Factorial of a number is product of all integers from 1 up to the number ( inclusive ).
Factorial of 5 is 1*2*3*4*5 = 120
Or
n! = 1*2*3….n

Factorial of a number by using loop and by recursive functions in Python

Factorial of an input number by using loop

We used for loop here

a=int(input("Enter a number : "))
b=1
for i in range(1,a+1):
  b=b*i
print("Factorial : ", b)

Output

Enter a number : 6
Factorial :  720

Factorial of a number by using recursive function

By using recursive function we can call the function itself from within the function.

def fact(n):
  if n==1:
    return 1
  else:
    result=n* fact(n-1)
    #print("Part factorial : ", result)
    return result
fact(4)

Output
