With the help of sympy.rf() method, we can find the Rising factorial. Rising factorial is defined by –
 rf(x, k) = x \cdot (x+1) \cdots (x+k-1)
where x can be arbitrary expression and k is an integer.
Syntax: rf(x, k) Parameter: x – It denotes any arbitrary expression. k – It denotes an integer. Returns: Returns rising factorial corresponding to the given inputs.
Example #1:
# import sympy 
from sympy import * 
  
x = symbols('x')
k = 5
print("Value of x = {} and k = {}".format(x, k))
   
# Use sympy.rf() method 
rf_x_k = rf(x, k)  
      
print("Rising factorial rf(x, k) : {}".format(rf_x_k))  

                    
Output:
Value of x = x and k = 5
Rising factorial rf(x, k) : x*(x + 1)*(x + 2)*(x + 3)*(x + 4)
Example #2:
# import sympy 
from sympy import * 
  
x = 7
k = 5
print("Value of x = {} and k = {}".format(x, k))
   
# Use sympy.rf() method 
rf_x_k = rf(x, k)  
      
print("Rising factorial rf(x, k) : {}".format(rf_x_k))  

                    
Output:
Value of x = 7 and k = 5
Rising factorial rf(x, k) : 55440
