One of the most common examples of recursion is an algorithm to calculate the factorial of an integer. The notation n! is used for the factorial of the integer n and is defined as follows

 0! is equal to 1

1! is equal to 1

2! is equal to 2 × 1 = 2

3! is equal to 3 × 2 × 1 = 6

4! is equal to 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24

...

n! is equal to n× (n– 1)× (n– 2) × × 3 × 2 × 1

An alternative way to describe the calculation of n! is the recursive formula n× (n – 1)!, plus a base case of 0!, which is 1. Write a static method that implements this recursive formula for factorials. Place the method in a test program that allows the user to enter values for n until signaling an end to execution.
