How can you calculate the factorial of 5 using Python's math module?
Aresult = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1
Bimport math result = math.factorial(5)
Cimport math result = math.fact(5)
Dimport math result = math.factor(5)
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify correct factorial function

    The math module provides math.factorial() to compute factorial.
  2. Step 2: Check syntax and alternatives

    import math result = math.factorial(5) uses correct function and syntax. math.fact(5) and math.factor(5) use wrong function names. result = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 manually calculates factorial but is not using math module.
  3. Final Answer:

    import math result = math.factorial(5) -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Factorial = math.factorial() [OK]
Quick Trick: Use math.factorial() for factorials [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Using wrong function names
  • Not importing math
  • Manual multiplication instead of function
