What utility output that as an L ?


Python 2.7 interpreter, after calculating factorial with the obvious loop. Basically, it's using repr() on the expression, so it flags the integer as a long, rather than an int.

I debated not including it, but this way I was sure of getting the right number of zeroes. My copy/paste is notorious for missing a character or two at each end.
