Create a python program in a file called product.py. Your program should prompt the user for an integer \(n\), and print the product of all of the reciprocals from 1 to \(n\): \[ \prod_{x = 1}^{n} \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{1} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \ldots \times \frac{1}{n} \]

Example

$ python3 product.py
How many terms? 3
0.166666666666666666666
