simple recursive program

[catalin10]

Wrote this simple recursive program... didn't worked... checked the book, it's written just like there.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

long fact(int n)
{
    if(n=0)
    return 1;
    else
    return n*fact(n-1);
}



main ()
{int number;
    cin>>number;
    cout<<fact(number);
}

this is what I get:

10

I presume you're trying to find the factorial? Try if(n<=1)

That = should be ==.

Oh wow haha. I'm not sure how I didn't catch that. I guess this is why we have many people answers questions
