JavaScript Loops

Guys... I was wondering how to write a code that executes the product of all the numbers from it upto one. That is if x=6, It calculates 1*2*3*4*5*6 and it gives me the result.

// Factorial const factorial = function(num) { if (num === 0 || num === 1) { return 1; } else { return num * factorial(num - 1); } } Here you have a task, and several of its solutions, with textual algorithm!👍😉 https://code.sololearn.com/WMt3NCSb4mrO/?ref=app

Yes it is called factorial and you denote it by 6! 6!=6×5×4×3×2×1 https://code.sololearn.com/WKWdPb150xY2/?ref=app

Yes it can be done. But in my code I have done it by recursion
