Except when explicitly noted otherwise, all return values are floats. and math.factorial(x) Return x factorial. Raises ValueError if x is not integral or is negative. but math.factorial returns an int (which is perfectly reasonable and just needs to be documented): In [3]: math.factorial(5) Out[3]: 120 ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 344039 nosy: Antony.Lee, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Inacurrate documentation regarding return type of math.factorial versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37109> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
