A simple Python script that calculates the factorial of a non-negative integer.
This Python script provides a function to calculate the factorial of a non-negative integer. Factorial is defined as the product of all positive integers from 1 to the given integer.
Example:
- Factorial of 5 (written as 5!) is 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.
To use the factorial calculator, simply call the factorial function with a non-negative integer as an argument. Here's an example of how to use it in your Python code:
from factorial_calculator import factorial
num = 5
result = factorial(num)
print(f"The factorial of {num} is {result}")Follow these steps to get started with the Python Factorial Calculator:
- Clone this repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/abdullahguch/factorial-calculator.git
-
Install Python (if not already installed). You can download it from python.org.
-
Navigate to the project directory:
cd python-factorial-calculator
- Run the script to calculate the factorial:
python factorial_calculator.py
- Follow the on-screen instructions to enter a non-negative integer and see the factorial result.
