Magic Number coding question---1. A number is said to be a magic number,if summing the digits of the number and then recursively repeating this process for the given sumuntill the number becomes a single digit number equal to 1.
Example: Number = 50113 => 5+0+1+1+3=10 => 1+0=1 [This is a Magic Number] Number = 1234 => 1+2+3+4=10 => 1+0=1 [This is a Magic Number] Number = 199 => 1+9+9=19 => 1+9=10 => 1+0=1 [This is a Magic Number] Number = 111 => 1+1+1=3 [This is NOT a Magic Number].
Recursive 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).

- java programarrow_forward1arrow_forwardEx. 01 : Recursion About So far, we have learned that we can perform repetitive tasks using loops. However, another way is by creating methods that call themselves. This programming technique is called recursion and, a method that calls itself within it's own body is called a recursive method. One use of recursion is to perform repetitive tasks instead of using loops, since some problems seem to be solved more naturally with recursion than with loops. To solve a problem using recursion, it is broken down into sub-problems. Each sub-problem is similar to the original problem, but smaller in size. You can apply the same approach to each sub-problem to solve it recursively. All recursive methods use conditional tests to either 1. stop or 2. continue the recursion. Each recursive method has the following characteristics: 1. end/terminating case: One or more end cases to stop the recursion. 2. recursive case: reduces the problem in to smaller sub-problems, until it reaches (becomes) the end…arrow_forward

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.
