  1 ## compute the factorial of 5, and return the result in the exit code
  2 #
  3 # To run (from the subx directory):
  4 #   $ ./subx translate apps/factorial.subx -o apps/factorial
  5 #   $ ./subx run apps/factorial
  6 # Expected result:
  7 #   $ echo $?
  8 #   120
  9 #
 10 # You can also run the automated test suite:
 11 #   $ ./subx run apps/factorial test
 12 # Expected output:
 13 #   ........
 14 # Every '.' indicates a passing test. Failing tests get a 'F'.
