Let's make this function dryer. We could write a ternary statement instead of spreading the code out into multiple lines.

Let's write 'puts' in front of the code we want to print to the screen.

Did you mean to include "return" before the "1"?

function doesn't seem like a meaningful name; it should probably be called 'factorial' or something

I think you need to explicitly return 1 here and, on line 6, return n * function(n-1)

if n is a float, this function might go on forever since it will never == zero. Perhaps <= would be better?

If you change the name of the function, you have to change it here too.

This should have a more descriptive name. Function dos not let us know what to use it for, and may be a reserved word in ruby.
