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.
- Check the value of “y”
- 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.

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

- *C Language The greatest common divisor of integers x and y is the largest integer that divides both x and y. Write a recursive function GCD that returns the greatest common divisor of x and y. The GCD of x and y is defined as follows: If y is equal to zero, then GCD(x, y) is x; otherwise GCD(x, y) is GCD(y, x % y) where % is the remainder operator.arrow_forwardA recursive function must have a to end the recursion. recursive call base case O value boolean conditionarrow_forwardTopic: Recursive Function A bank increases the interest rate it gives to its customers by 1% every month the money stays in the bank.

- Problem Statement for Recursive Sum of Numbers Program Here is a simple recursive problem: Design a function that accepts a positive integer >= 1 and returns the sum of all the integers from 1 up to the number passed as an argument. For example, if 10 is passed as an argument, the function will return 55. Use recursion to calculate the sum. Write a second function which asks the user for the integer and displays the result of calling the function. Part 1. Understand the Problem To design a recursive function, you need to determine at least one base case (the base case returns a solution) and a general case (the general case calls the function again but passes a smaller version of the data as a parameter). To make this problem recursive think about it like this: If the integer is 1, the function will return 1. If the integer is 2, the function will return 1 + 2 = 3. If the integer is 3, the function will return 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. . . . For this problem, we will be sending in the "last"…arrow_forwardRecursive Power MethodWrite a method called powCal that uses recursion to raise a number to a power. The method should accept two arguments: The first argument is the exponent and the second argument is the number to be raised (example” powCal(10,2) means 210). Assume that the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Demonstrate the method in a program called Recursive (This means that you need to write a program that has at least two methods: main and powCal. The powCal method is where you implement the requirements above and the main method is where you make a method call to demonstrate how your powCal method work).arrow_forwardPython Language Prime funcationarrow_forward
