Question

Write code to complete print_factorial()'s recursive case. sample output if user_val is 5: 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120

Answer 1

```
#!/usr/local/bin/python3


import sys

def print_factorial( user_val ):
if( user_val < 1 ):
return( 1 )
else:
return( print_factorial( user_val - 1 ) * user_val )


if( __name__ == "__main__" ):
if( len( sys.argv ) == 2 ):
print( print_factorial( int ( sys.argv[ 1 ] ) ) )
else:
sys.stderr.write( "usage: %s <integer>\\" % sys.argv[ 0 ] )

exit( 0 )
