## compute the factorial of 5, and return the result in the exit code
#
# Uses syntax sugar for:
#   rm32 operands
#
# To run:
#   $ ./translate_subx init.linux 0*.subx apps/factorial.subx -o apps/factorial
#   $ ./bootstrap run apps/factorial
# Expected result:
#   $ echo $?
#   120
#
# You can also run the automated test suite:
#   $ ./bootstrap run apps/factorial test
# Expected output:
#   ........
# Every '.' indicates a passing test. Failing tests get a 'F'.
