--description--

Given an integer from zero to 20, return the factorial of that number. The factorial of a number is the product of all the numbers between 1 and the given number.

• The factorial of zero is 1.

--hints--

factorial(0) should return 1.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(factorial(0), 1)`)
}})

factorial(5) should return 120.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(factorial(5), 120)`)
}})

factorial(20) should return 2432902008176640000.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(factorial(20), 2432902008176640000)`)
}})
