Since you are not using an array or anything, the space complexity is O(1). If n gets bigger the amount of memory used doesn't increase.

def factorial(number)
raise NotImplementedError
if number == nil || number < 0
raise ArgumentError, "Need positive integer"
end
factorial = 1
while number >= 1
factorial *= number
number = number - 1
end
return factorial
end
