Hey everyone!
I’ve stumbled upon this interesting JavaScript code that calculates the factorial of a number, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!
function factorial(n) {
if (n === 0 || n === 1) {
return 1;
} else {
return n * factorial(n – 1);
}
}
// Test the factorial function
const num = 5;
console.log(`Factorial of ${num} is: ${factorial(num)}`);
Discussion Points:
Logic in the Code: Can you explain how the factorial function works, especially the recursive part?
Test Case: The code tests the factorial function with the number 5. How would you test it with different numbers?
Recursion: What are your thoughts on using recursion to solve this problem? Are there alternative approaches you would consider?
Improvements: Are there any improvements or optimizations you would suggest for this code?
