Don't use assert to check whether the parameters have the right value.
assert should be used to claim that a certain condition always hold i

int to float will h

Hi,
I need to calculate this probability P!/{n \choose p}, varying both n
and p, n takes values in this range [512:1024] and p in [2:12].
So i write this code in python:
def factorial(n):
result=1
if n==0: return 1
for i in xrange(1, abs(n)+1):
result = i*re
