Python simple Code

[Salem Alqahtani]

Hi Guys,

I just joined the group and I hope that I can help and be active.

I have a question about python. I wrote a code on python 2.7 and I want to 
choose from the list of names that I provide n!. I execute the code but the 
result or output is the numbers. I want the people names are the result.


Sincerely

import sys
import array
a=['salem','Ali','sultan']
m = len(a)
def Factorials(m):
if m == 0:
return 1
else:
print m
return m * Factorials(m-1)
def output():
print a
def main():
print Factorials(m)
output()
main()

Hi Guys,

I appreciate your answers and the output that I am expected from my simple code 
is the following:

['salem','Ali','sultan']
['salem','sultan','Ali']
['Ali','sultan','salem']
['Ali','salem','sultan']
['sultan','Ali','salem']
['sultan','salem','sultan']

the 3 * 2 * 1 is 6 but I do not looking for this output.
