I am having a hard time understanding how to use futures specifically when 
it comes to implementing functions within those futures. 

So for example, if I wanted to implement factorial in a future using this 
algorithm: 
     int factorial(int n) {

   if (n == 0)
      return 1;
   else
      return (n * factorial(n-1));
   }


My current guess is: 


                Future<Integer> f = future(new function <Integer, Integer>() {
                     public Integer apply(Integer i) {
                        if (i == 0) {
                            return 1;
                        }
                        else {
                          return (i * apply(n-1));
                        }
                     }
                }, system.dispatcher());
               results = f.onSuccess(new PrintResult<Integer>(), 
system.dispatcher());
