Chapter 5, Problem 10PE
Write a recursive method
public static String reverse(String str)
that computes the reverse of a string. For example, reverse("flow") should return "wolf". Hint: Reverse the substring starting at the second character, then add the first character at the end. For example, to reverse "flow", first reverse "low" to "wol", then add the "f" at the end.

Write a recursive method that displaysa string reversely on the console using the following header:
public static void reverseDisplay(String value)
For example, reverseDisplay("abcd") displays dcba. Write a test programthat prompts the user to enter a string and displays its reversal.
Write a short recursive Java method that determines if a string s is a palindrome, that is, it is equal to its reverse. Examples of palindromes include 'racecar' and 'mom'. Test the method by asking the user to provide string entries to be checked. Hint: Check the equality of the first and last characters and recur (but be careful to return the correct value for both odd and even-length strings).
Write a recursive method called reverseString() that takes in a string as a parameter and returns the string in reversed order. The main method is provided to read a string from the user and call the reverseString() method.
Use Java.
Ex: If the input of the program is:
Hello
the reverseString() method returns and the program outputs:
Reverse of "Hello" is "olleH".
Ex: If the input of the program is:
Hello, world!
the reverseString() method returns and the program outputs:
Reverse of "Hello, world!" is "!dlrow ,olleH".
Hint: Move the first character to the end of the returning string and pass the remaining sub-string to the next reverseString() method call.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class LabProgram {
/* TODO: Write recursive reverseString() method here. */public static void main(String[] args) {Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);String input, result;input = scnr.nextLine();result = reverseString(input); System.out.printf("Reverse of \"%s\" is \"%s\".", input, result);}}

For example, evenFactors(18,1) prints 2, 6, and 18, since the even factors of 18 that are greater than or equal to 1 are 2,6, and 18.arrow_forward
- Write a recursive method that returns a string of all positive, prime numbers less than or equal to a given value n. Use this header: String primeList (int n) For example, primeList (10) returns "7532" because the range 10 down to 0 includes the prime numbers 7, 5, 3, 2. Here are a few more examples. Returned Input n Notes String Any value less than 2 the returned string is empty 2 "2" "32" 7. "7532" 10 "7532" returned string has values 13, 11, 7, 5, 3, 2 15 "13117532" Note: A prime number is a whole number greater than 1, and it is divisible only by itself or the number 1. For example, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, etc are all prime numbers. Here is a method that checks if a given number is prime: boolean isPrime(int n) { /method returns true if n is prime, otherdse it returns false if(n<2) return false; for (Int 1- 2; i < n; i++) //condition could also be icMath.sqrt(n) if(n %i -- 0) return false; return true;arrow_forwardWrite a recursive method that will reverse the order of the characters in agiven string and return the result as a new string.

- Write a recursive method called drawTriangle() that outputs lines of '*' to form an upside down isosceles triangle. Method drawTriangle() has one parameter, an integer representing the base length of the triangle. Assume the base length is always odd and less than 20. Output 9 spaces before the first '*' on the last line for correct formatting. Hint: The number of '*' decreases by 2 for every line drawn. Ex: If the input of the program is: 3 the method drawTriangle() outputs: *** * Ex: If the input of the program is: 19 the method drawTriangle() outputs: ******************* ***************** *************** ************* *********** ********* ******* ***** *** * Note: No space is output before the first '*' on the first line when the base length is 19.arrow_forwardDo not use static variables to implement recursive methods. USING JAVA: // P6 public static int countSubstrings(String s1, String s2) { } Write a recursive method countSubstrings that counts the number of non-overlapping occurrences of a string s2 in a string s1. Use the method indexOf() from String class. As an example, with s1=”abab” and s2=”ab”, countSubstrings returns 2. With s1=”aaabbaa” and s2=”aa”, countSubstrings returns 2. With s1=”aabbaa” and s2=”AA”, countSubStrings returns 0. Show the output on the following strings: s1 = “Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems Java platform.
