Students have asked these similar questions
When recursion is used to solve a problem, why must the recursive method call itself to solve a smaller version of the original problem?
Indirect recursion is when function A calls
function B, which in turn calls function A.
is it true or false.

Question 2:
For two integers m and n, their GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) can be computed by a recursive method. Write a recursive method gcd(m,n) to find their Greatest Common Divisor.
Method body:
If m is 0, the method returns n. If n is 0, the method returns m. If neither is 0, the method can recursively calculate the Greatest Common Divisor with two smaller parameters: One is n, the second one is m mod n (or m % n). The recursive method cannot have loops.
Note: although there are other approaches to calculate Greatest Common Divisor, please follow the instructions in this question, otherwise you will not get the credit.
main method:
Prompt and read in two numbers to find the greatest common divisor.
Call the gcd method with the two numbers as its argument. Print the result to the monitor.
Example program run:
Enter m:
12
Enter n:
28
GCD(12,28) = 4

Which of the features is not valid for a recursive function. Select one: a. The Recursive calls can be more then one b. The Recursive Call – the function calls itself with an input which is a step closer to the stop condition c. The Stoping Conditions can be more than one d. The Recursive call is optional. e.

- Pascal's triangle is a useful recursive definition that tells us the coefficients in the expansion of the polynomial (x + a)^n. Each element in the triangle has a coordinate, given by the row it is on and its position in the row (which you could call a column). Every number in Pascals triangle is defined as the sum of the item above it and the item above it and to the left. If there is a position that does not have an entry, we treat it as if we had a 0 there. *picture of the pascals triangle* Given the following recursive function signature, write the recursive function that takes a row and a column and finds the value at that position in the triangle. Assume that the triangle starts at row 0 and column 0. Examples: pascal(2, 1) -> 2, pascal(1, 2) -> 0 public int pascal(int row, int column) { }arrow_forward3.

If n is 3, then y is 125. If n is 4, then y is 625. The recursive method cannot have loops. Then write a testing program to call the recursive method. If you run your program, the results should look like this: > run RecExpTest Enter a number: 3 125 >run RecExpTest Enter a number: 3125 2. For two integers m and n, their GCD(Greatest Common Divisor) can be computed by a recursive function. Write a recursive method gcd(m,n) to find their Greatest Common Divisor. Once m is 0, the function returns n. Once n is 0, the function returns m. If neither is 0, the function can recursively calculate the Greatest Common Divisor with two smaller parameters: One is n, the second one is m mod n.

- solve q6 only pleasearrow_forwardPlease Give answer in C# Write a recursive method which sums all the even numbers up to a given number. For example if you call it with 10, it would return 30 because 10+8+6+4+2=30 Write a RECURSIVE method called sumEven It must take in an int (the max you wish to sum to) It must return an int (the sum) If it's passed in an even number it should sum the number passed in with all the even numbers before it. For example if passed 8, it would sum 8+6+4+2=20 If it's passed an odd number it should still sum only the EVEN numbers. What we mean is that sumEven(9) should return 8+6+4+2=20. Not 9+7+5+3+1. Hint: You'll have an if statement with the base condition, an else if for even and an else if for odd. In the case of odd, just call yourself with the next lowest even number.

- Exercise-3: Write a recursive and iterative methods to convert a decimal number to its binary equivalent string. The iterative algorithm (in pseudo-code) for converting a decimal integer into a binary integer as follows: 1. If the integer is 0 or 1, its binary equivalent is 0 or 1. 2. If the integer is greater than or equal to 2 do the following: 3. Divide the integer by 2. 4. Separate the result into a quotient and remainder. 5. Divide the quotient again and repeat the process until the quotient is zero. 6. Write down all remainders in reverse order as a string. 7. This string is the binary equivalent of the given integer. // Recursive decimal to binary method public static String dec2binRecursive(int n) { if (n<2) return n+ " ". else return dec2binRecursive(n/2) + n%2; } a) Write the Complete program for above Recursive decimal to binary method Algorit b) Iterative decimal to binary methodarrow_forwardsolve q4 only pleasearrow_forwardThe word ladder game was invented by Lewis Carroll in 1877. The idea is to begin with a start word and then change one letter at a time until you arrive at an end word. Each word along the way must be an English word. For example, starting from FISH, you can arrive at MAST through the following word ladder:FISH, WISH, WASH, MASH, MAST Write a program that uses recursion to find the word ladder given a start word and an end word, or that determines no word ladder exists. Use the file words.txt that is available online with the source code for the book as your dictionary of valid words. This file contains 87,314 words. Your program does not need to find the shortest word ladder between words; any word ladder will do if one exists. list aalii aardvark aardvarks aardwolf aba abaca abaci abacist aback abacus abacuses abaft abalone abalones abamp abampere abandon abandoned abandonee abandoner abandonersarrow_forward
