Chapter 25.2, Problem 25.2.5CP

Explanation of Solution

Implementation of “search (element)” method using recursion:

//definition of Boolean search method

public boolean search (E e)

{

//return true if the element is in the tree

return search (root, e);

}

//definition of "search" method

public boolean search (TreeNode<E> root, E e)

{

//check the "root" is null or not

if (root == null)

//return statement

return false;

//check the "root" value is less than 0

else if (e.compareTo (root.element) < 0)

//return statement

return serach (root.left, e);

//check the "root" value is greater than 0

else if (e.compareTo (root.element) > 0)

//return statement

return serach (root...

By using java, Write a recursive function that finds the maximum element in an array ofintegers, based on comparing the first element in the array against themaximum in the rest of the array recursively.
By, using java. give an reverse recursivefunction to print elements in array
Write and implement a recursive version of the binary search algorithm. Also, write a version of the sequential search algorithm that can be applied to sorted lists. Add this operation to the class orderedArrayListType for array-based lists. Moreover, write a test program to test your algorithm.
