Python Coding Challange - Question with Answer (01030825)

 

✅ Explanation:

1. Initialization

total = 1

We start with total set to 1.

---

2. Loop Execution

for i in range(1, 5):

This means i will take values: 1, 2, 3, 4 (the number 5 is not included).

---

3. Loop Body

total *= i

This is shorthand for:

total = total * i

It multiplies total by the current i.

---

Step-by-Step Calculation:

i	total before	total after
1	1	1×1 = 1
2	1	1×2 = 2
3	2	2×3 = 6
4	6	6×4 = 24

 Final Output:

print(total)

➡️ 24 is printed.

---

 Summary:

This code calculates the factorial of 4:
4! = 1 × 2 × 3 × 4 = 24
