Write a Golang program to find the factorial of a given number (Using Recursion)

Examples

Factorial of 5 = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120

Factorial of 10 = 10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 =

Approach to solve this problem

• Step 1: Define a function that accepts a number (greater than 0), type is int.
• Step 2: If the number is 1, then return 1.
• Step 3: Otherwise, return num*function(num-1).

Program

Live Demo

package main import "fmt" func factorial(num int) int{    if num == 1 || num == 0{       return num    }    return num * factorial(num-1) } func main(){    fmt.Println(factorial(3))    fmt.Println(factorial(4))    fmt.Println(factorial(5)) }

Output

6 24 120
