[Bioinformatics 101] 007. Function Method



Hello! This is Kenneth J Han!

In this post, we are going to look at function (or method).




007. Function Method

Problem

Create a function (or a method) called Factorial.
The Factorial has one integer parameter "num" and returns factorial value of "num".
Calculate the value of 3 factorial, 4 factorial and 5 factorial.

Pseudocode

Factorial(num)
    result ← 1
    WHILE num > 0
        result ← result * num
        num ← num - 1
    RETURN result

result3 ← Factorial(3)
result4 ← Factorial(4)
result5 ← Factorial(5)

PRINT result3, result4, result5

Answer

6  24  120

  2. This is a simple yet effective introduction to functions and methods, demonstrating how a reusable factorial function can simplify problem solving and improve code organization. The step-by-step pseudocode makes the concept easy to follow, especially for beginners who are developing programming skills for computational biology applications. The practical approach fits well with learning paths in Biomedical & Bioinformatics Projects.
