Question

Recursive function tracing: drawing Recursion Tree for Smallest(a, 0, 6), where vector a contains the following numbers: a = {4, 5, 10, 1, 20, 23, 2}.

• clearly label each recursive call’s parameters
• clearly label what each call returns to its caller

//Return smallest element in sublist a[first...last] int Smallest (vector<int> a, int first, int last)
{

if (first==last) return a[first]; mid = (first+last)/2; //integer division l1 = Smallest(a, first, mid); l2 = Smallest (a, mid+1, last); if (l1>l2) return l2; else return l1;

}
