main:
; Prompt for the number
mov eax, 0
lea edi, [prompt]
call printf

; Read the number

lea edi, [format]
lea esi, [num]
call scanf
 ; Call subroutine to calculate factorial
mov eax, [num]
call calc_factorial

; Print the result

calc_factorial:
; Input: EAX = number
; Output: EAX = factorial
; Modifies: EAX, EBX, ECX

mov ebx, eax ; Copy number to ebx

mov ecx, 1 ; Initialize factorial to 1

.loop:
mul ecx ; Multiply factorial by current number
inc ecx ; Increment current number
cmp ecx, ebx ; Compare current number with input number
jle .loop ; Loop until current number <= input number

mov eax, ecx ; Store factorial in eax

ret
