Description - this is a recursive function that prints the string repeatedly. Each time it prints the string, it excludes the last character of the string until only one character is left.

Instructions:

  1. In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for a string and passes this string and the size of this string to a function call of the function, preserveString().
  2. This preserveString() function has the following description:
    1. Return type - void
    2. Name - preserveString
    3. Parameters
      1. The string
      2. Length of the string
    4. Description - this is a recursive function that prints the string repeatedly. Each time it prints the string, it excludes the last character of the string until only one character is left.
  3. This preserveString() function has already been partially implemented. Your only task is to add the recursive case of this function.

 

Please Finish the code ASAP:

This is my current given code: 

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>

#define STR_MAX_SIZE 100

void preserveString(char*, int);

int main(void) {
    char str[STR_MAX_SIZE];

    printf("Enter string: ");
    fgets(str, STR_MAX_SIZE, stdin);

    preserveString(str, strlen(str));

    return 0;
}

void preserveString(char *str, int size) {
    if(size > 0) {
        for(int i = 0; i < size - 1; i++) {
            printf("%c", str[i]);
        }
        printf("\n");

        // TODO: Add the recursive case of the function here
    }
}

 

 

The output should be:

Enter string: Hello! Hello! Hello Hell Hel He H
