Python examples of from keyword

Example 1: Find factorial of a number by importing factorial from math module.

# python code to demonstrate example of
# from keyword

# Find factorial of a number 
# by importing factorial from math module.

from math import factorial

num = 4

# printing factorial
print("factorial of ", num, " is = ", factorial(num))

factorial of  4  is =  24

Example 2: Find factorial and square root of a number by importing two functions factorial and sqrt from math module.

# python code to demonstrate example of
# from keyword

# Find factorial and square root of a number 
# by importing two functions factorial and sqrt 
# from math module.

# importing factorial and sqrt from math module
from math import factorial, sqrt

num = 4

# printing factorial & square root
print("factorial of ", num, " is = ", factorial(num))
print("square root of ", num, " is = ", sqrt(num))
