Using JAVA
Recursive Power Method
Write a method called powCalthat uses recursion to raise a number to a power. The method should accept two arguments: The first argument is the exponentand the second argument is the number to be raised(example”powCal(10,2)means2^10). Assume that the exponent is anonnegative integer. Demonstrate the method in a program called Recursive (This means that you need to write a program that has at least two methods: mainand 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 powCalmethod work).

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

Use recursion to determine the number of digits in an integer n.
Hint: If n is < 10, it has one digit. Otherwise, it has one more digit than n / 10.
Write the method and then write a test program to test the method
Your test program must:
Ask the user for a number
Print the number of digits in that number. (describe the numbers printed to the console)
Use program headers and method header comments in your code.
