Program Plan Intro

Recursive Power Method

Program Plan:

  • Global variable declaration:
    • Initialize the variable “minimum” as “1”.
    • Initialize the variable “maximum” as “100”.
  • Define the “main()” function:
    • Initialize the variable “number” is “0”.
    • Initialize the variable “exp” is “0”.
    • Get the input from the user and store it to the variable “number”.
    • Check the value of “exp”
      • If it is less than “minimum” or greater than “maximum”, then get the exponent “exp” from user.
    • Call the function “recursivePower()” and pass the two arguments “number” and “exp”.
    • Display the result on the output screen.
  • Define the “recursivePower(x, y)” function:
    • Check the value of “y”
      • If it is equal to “0”, then returns “1”.
      • Otherwise, call the function “recursivePower()” recursively along with the arguments “x” and the decremented value of “y”.
      • Display the result on the output screen.
  • Call the “main()” function.

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.

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: ");…
