Could anyone give me a little help?
I'm trying to use recursive programming for getting a factorial of a =
number. The source I've made is:
=20
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
long int rcs_factorial(long int);
=20
main(){
int num;
printf("Factorial of: ");
scanf("%d",&num);
printf(" %ld",rcs_factorial(num));
}
=20
long int rcs_factorial(long int passed){
if(passed <=3D1 ){
printf("%d =3D ",passed);
return 1;
}
else{
printf("%d * ",passed);
return passed * rcs_factorial(--passed);
}
}
But it doesn't work. It does the rigth number of calls to rcs_factorial =
but fails at doing the first multiplication.

Thanks.
Luis.
