I find it interesting how it knows to sort of work backwards once it finally finds out what 1 is instead of just getting to 1 and stopping but it also knows to not go through the loop again.

This is a great tutorial. For a small adjustment, shouldn’t the base case technically be: if (n==1 || n == 0) { return 1; } Since 0! Is also 1?
@automationneemo2 жыл бұрын
Good explanation. But there is a bug in this code. What would be the value of factorial(0). I think you have not consider it. If you give an input as 0, error will be thrown at run time.

@hulza5712 жыл бұрын
hi i just saw your comment lemme help you first you must put import statement (import java.util.Scanner;) before public class then put Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); inside the class declare what variable (for example, the name is num) so you type int num = input.nextInt(); (if the data type is integer) cmiiw, im still learning too

@kiradomochi49612 жыл бұрын
!0 is 1 so the base case that should return 1 is n == 0. Everything else is perfect for every input. Otherwise if you put a 0 for n the code keeps running.

Alex, as the factorial gets each result of each recursion step, where is It being stored? You don’t seem to store each iteration result in a variable. I just see the final 120.

@tydy56013 жыл бұрын
The int data type to represent an integer has a maximum value of (2^32) -1 = 2,147,483,647, so any factorial result higher than this value will fail because of the data type we are using, so 12! is the last value we can calculate
