recursive factorial function
A recursive factorial function is a mathematical algorithm that uses the concept of recursion to compute the factorial of a given positive integer. It repeatedly calls itself with a smaller value until it reaches the base case, which is typically when the input value equals 1. The function multiplies the input value with the factorial of the smaller value until it reaches the base case, thus calculating the factorial.
