import time

# Step 2: Define the decorator

'''  How this code works:
This code defines a decorator indicate and three functions avg_two, avg_three, and avg_many_kwargs , each decorated with indicate. Here's a brief description of each component:

Decorator time_it(func) function:
- Adds functionality to factorial to calculate the difference between the time before and after executing function factorial.
- wrapper takes arguments *args and **kwargs and passes them to the func call (factorial).
- The *args allows the wrapper() function to accept any number of positional arguments as a tuple.
- The **kwargs allows the wrapper() function to accept any number of keyword arguments as a dictionary.
The @time_it decorator is applied to the function:
- factorial(n): Computes the factorial of a number, with timing information displayed due to the decorator.
- The decorator prints the time taken to execute the factorial function.
