Day1 Functions

Objective

Today, we’re discussing JavaScript functions. Check out the attached tutorial for more details.

Task

Implement a function named factorial that has one parameter: an integer, n. It must return the value of n! (i.e., n factorial).

Input Format

Locked stub code in the editor reads a single integer, n, from stdin and passes it to a function named factorial.

Constraints

• 1 <= n <= 10

Output Format

The function must return the value of n!.

Sample Input 0

1

4

Sample Output 0

1

24

Explanation

We return the value of 4! = 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 = 24.

Solution 1

let memoization = [0, 1];

const factorial = (n) => {
    (typeof memoization[n] !== 'number') && (
        memoization[n] = (n - 1) > 0 ? n * factorial(n - 1) : 1 
    );

    return memoization[n];
