Factorial Algorithms in different languages
- by Brad Gilbert
I want to see all the different ways you can come up with, for a factorial subroutine, or program. The hope is that anyone can come here and see if they might want to learn a new language.
Ideas:
Procedural
Functional
Object Oriented
One liners
Obfuscated
Oddball
Bad Code
Polyglot
Basically I want to see an example, of different ways of writing an algorithm, and what they would look like in different languages.
Please limit it to one example per entry.
I will allow you to have more than one example per answer, if you are trying to highlight a specific style, language, or just a well thought out idea that lends itself to being in one post.
The only real requirement is it must find the factorial of a given argument, in all languages represented.
Be Creative!
Recommended Guideline:
# Language Name: Optional Style type
- Optional bullet points

I will ocasionally go along and edit any answer that does not have decent formatting.
