Hi there,
I'm new to Python and I've been writing a rudimentary exercise in
Deitel's Python: How to Program, and I found that this code exhibits a
weird behavior. When I run the script, the for...range(1,11) structure
always starts with zero--and I've tried plugging other values as well!
>From the Python commandline, though, this structure produces a normal
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 output. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong
here?
input = raw_input("Please enter a value you wish to factorialize:")
def fact(n):
total = 0
n = int(n)
while n > 0:
total *= n
n -=1
return total
print "%d" % fact(input)
e = 1
for val in range(1,11):
if val == 0:
continue
else:
e += 1/fact(val)
print "Where n is 10, e = %d\n\n" % e
e2 = 1
input = raw_input("Enter x:")
for val in range(1,11):
if val == 0:
continue
else:
e2 += (float(input) ** val)/(fact(val))
print "Where the n is 10, e**x = %d\n\n" %e
