Section 54.6: Factorial calculation

The factorial of a number (denoted with !, as for instance 9!) is the multiplication of that number with the factorial of one lower. So, for instance, 9! = 9 x 8! = 9 x 8 x 7! = 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1.

So in code that becomes, using recursion:

long Factorial(long x)

{

if (x < 1)

{

throw new OutOfRangeException("Factorial can only be used with positive numbers.");

}

if (x == 1)

{

return 1; } else {

return x * Factorial(x - 1);

}

}
