Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Create a Python script with a function that finds the factorial of a number using recursion. Profile it using cProfile and analyze the performance. Suggest optimizations.
💡 Hint: Focus on excessive recursive calls' performance.
Question 2
Write Python code to compare the time taken to sum a list of numbers using both a loop and the built-in sum() function. Use timeit to measure and compare the performance.
💡 Hint: Measure both methods several times to see consistent results.
