### factorial
|
|
|
|
Calculates the factorial of a number.
|
|
|
|
Use recursion.
|
|
If `n` is less than or equal to `1`, return `1`.
|
|
Otherwise, return the product of `n` and the factorial of `n - 1`.
|
|
Throws an exception if `n` is a negative number.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const factorial = n =>
|
|
n < 0
|
|
? (() => {
|
|
throw new TypeError('Negative numbers are not allowed!');
|
|
})()
|
|
: n <= 1
|
|
? 1
|
|
: n * factorial(n - 1);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
factorial(6); // 720
|
|
```
