changed int to float, and this has to be atleast 30 char so,.. yeah
Don't use floats, factorials are integers, so use BigInts instead.

So, we got a practise problem to find the number of zeroes behind the factorial of a number.
As I understand, you want to know the number of zeros on right of a factorial.
A factorial is a multiplication of integers. Which numbers alone or multiplied together give zeroes on right?
With a little analyze, you will find that you don't need to calc the factorial itself.

The second code is displaying nothing after taking the input:
Your code do not behave the way you expect, and you don't understand why !
There is an almost universal solution: Run your code on debugger step by step, inspect variables.
The debugger is here to show you what your code is doing and your task is to compare with what it should do.
There is no magic in the debugger, it don't know what your is supposed to do, it don't find bugs, it just help you to by showing you what is going on. When the code don't do what is expected, you are close to a bug.
To see what your code is doing: Just set a breakpoint and see your code performing, the debugger allow you to execute lines 1 by 1 and to inspect variables as it execute.
