write a program to find the factorial of any number using for loop in matlab

To write a program to find the factorial of any number using a for loop in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

  1. Prompt the user to enter the number for which they want to find the factorial.
  2. Read the input number from the user and store it in a variable.
  3. Create a variable to store the factorial and initialize it to 1.
  4. Use a for loop to iterate from 1 to the input number.
  5. In each iteration, multiply the factorial variable by the loop counter.
  6. After the loop completes, the factorial variable will contain the factorial of the input number.
  7. Display the factorial as the output.

Here is an example code that demonstrates this approach:

main.m
% Step 1: Prompt the user to enter the number
num = input('Enter a number: ');

% Step 3: Initialize the factorial variable
factorialNum = 1;

% Step 4: Use a for loop to find the factorial
for i = 1:num
    factorialNum = factorialNum * i;
end

% Step 7: Display the factorial
fprintf('Factorial of %d is %d\n', num, factorialNum);
333 chars
14 lines

This program will calculate the factorial of the input number using a for loop and display the result.
