Recursive Multiplication

Program Plan:

  • Define the “main()” function:
    • Initializes the variable “n1” is “0”
    • Initializes the variable “n2” is “0”
    • Check the value of “n1”.
      • If it is less than or equal to “0”, then get the first number from the user and store it to the variable “n1”.
    • Check the value of “n2”.
      • If it is less than or equal to “0”, then get the second number from the user and store it to the variable “n2”.
    • Call the function “multiplyRecursive()” and pass the two arguments “n1” and “n2”.
  • Define the “multiplyRecursive()” function:
    • Check the value of “x” and “y”
      • If it is equal to “0”, then return “0”.
      • Otherwise, call the function “multiplyRecursive()” to recursively perform the addition operation.
  • Call the “main()” function.

Recursive Multiplication Design a recursive function that accepts two arguments into the parameters x and y. The function should return the value of x times y. Remember, multiplication can be performed as repeated addition as follows: 7×4=4+4+4+4+4+4+4(To keep the function simple, assume that x and y will always hold positive nonzero integers.) IN Q BASIC LANGUAGE
Python program (recursive function)   A recursive function is a function defined in terms of itself via self-referential expressions. This means that the function will continue to call itself and repeat its behavior until some condition is met to return a result. Write a python recursive functionprod that takes x as an argument, and returns the result where, result=1*1/2*1/3*….*1/n Include a screenshot that shows a python program that uses the above function and prints the rounded result to three decimal placesafter prompting the user to enter a number, x. Use x=3.    N.B: The code should be included please.
Problem: Recursive Power Method Design a python function that uses recursion to raise a number to a power. The function should accept two arguments: the number to be raised, and the exponent. Assume the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Write the main() function to input the required parameters as shown in thesample input/output.   Sample Output:Average number of words per line: 26.0Enter a number: 2Enter a positive whole number between 1 and 100: 102.0 raised to the power of 10 is 1,024.00
