Utkan Gezer added the comment:
The use case is similar to the use case of sum() function, which is analogous
to the sigma notation in mathematics, and is analogous to the use case of the
pi notation in mathematics.
Regular loop should be equally enough to achieve the function of sum(), yet
New submission from Utkan Gezer:
An issue of enhancement by the introduction of a built-in product() function
for the multiplication operation, functions similar to how sum does for the
addition operation.
This issue is a reincarnation of Issue 1093 for Python 2.6, now for 3.6.
