Program Plan Intro

Recursive Multiplication

Program Plan:

  • • Define the “main()” function:
    • ○ Initializes the variable “n1” as “0”
    • ○ Initializes the variable “n2” as “0”
    • ○ Check the value of “n1”.
      • ■ If it is less than or equal to “0”, then get the first number from the user and store it to the variable “n1”.
    • ○ Check the value of “n2”.
      • ■ If it is less than or equal to “0”, then get the second number from the user and store it to the variable “n2”.
    • ○ Call the function “multiplyRecursive()” and pass the two arguments “n1” and “n2”.
  • • Define the “multiplyRecursive()” function:
    • ○ Check the value of “x” and “y”
      • ■ If it is equal to “0”, then return “0”.
      • ■ Otherwise, call the function “multiplyRecursive()” to recursively perform the addition operation.
  • • Call the “main()” function.

Exponent y Catherine Arellano mplement a recursive function that returns he exponent given the base and the result. for example, if the base is 2 and the result is 3, then the output should be 3 because the exponent needed for 2 to become 8 is 3 (i.e. 23 = 8) nstructions: 1. In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for two integer inputs: 1. The first integer is the base 2. The second integer is the result 2. Furthermore, you are provided with the getExponent() function. The details of this function are the following: 1. Return type - int 2. Name - getExponent 3. Parameters 1. int - base 2. int - result 4. Description - this recursive function returns the exponent 5. Your task is to add the base case and the general case so it will work Score: 0/5 Overview 1080 main.c exponent.h 1 #include 2 #include "exponent.h" 3 int main(void) { 4 int base, result; 5 6 printf("Enter the base: "); scanf("%d", &base); 7 8 9 printf("Enter the result: ");…
Recursive Power FunctionWrite a function that uses recursion to raise a number to a power. The function should accept two arguments: the number to be raised and the exponent. Assume that the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Demonstrate the function in a program.

Python program (recursive function)   A recursive function is a function defined in terms of itself via self-referential expressions. This means that the function will continue to call itself and repeat its behavior until some condition is met to return a result. Write a python recursive functionprod that takes x as an argument, and returns the result where, result=1*1/2*1/3*….*1/n Include a screenshot that shows a python program that uses the above function and prints the rounded result to three decimal placesafter prompting the user to enter a number, x. Use x=3.    N.B: The code should be included please.
