Check answer and explanation

Answer: If n = 0 return, 1 else return F(n - 1) * n

Explanation Factorial is defined as: n! = n × (n - 1)! for n ≥ 1, and 0! = 1 . Recursive algorithm: if n = 0 return 1 else return F(n - 1) * n To compute F(n) - F(n - 1), first calculate F(n) recursively using this formula , then subtract F(n - 1). Last verified on 24-03-2026
