Question
Chapter 13, Problem 2PE
Program Plan Intro
Largest Element
Program Plan:
- Define the method “findMax()” which has array values, start value “start”, and end value “end” as an argument.
- Check the “if” condition, check the value of “start” is equal to “0”.
- If the condition is true, assign “ans[start]” into variable “ans”.
- Check the “if” condition, check the value of “start” greater than “end”.
- Return the value of “ans”.
- If the condition returns false, using “if” condition check the greater value.
- If the condition is true, assign “arr[start]” to variable “ans”.
- Call the recursive call “findMax()” for answer.
- Check the “if” condition, check the value of “start” is equal to “0”.
- Define the “main()” function:
- Declare and initialize the appropriate variables.
- Call the “findMax()” method and print the largest number on screen.

7. Recursive Power Method
In Python, design a 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.
Recursive PrintingDesign a recursive function that accepts an integer argument,n , and prints the numbers 1 up through n .
C++ Coding: ArraysTrue and False
Code function definitions for eoNum() and output():
Both eoNum() and output() are recursive functions.
output() stores the even/odd value in an array. Store 0 if the element in the data array is even and store 1 if the element in the data array is odd.
eoNum() displays all the values in an array to the console.

- (Numerical) Write and test a function that returns the position of the largest and smallest values in an array of double-precision numbers.arrow_forward(List maintenance) The following letters are stored in an alphabet array: B, J, K, M, S, and Z. Write and test a function named adlet(), which accepts the alphabet array and a new letter as arguments, and then inserts the new letter in the correct alphabetical order in the array.arrow_forwardRecursive 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.)

You should have the main function + function to find the summation. Question 2: Write recursive function that returns the value of the following recursive definition: f(x) = 0 if x<= 0 f(x-1 )+ 2 otherwise You should have the main function + the recursive function.arrow_forward6. Sum of Numbers Design a function that accepts an integer argument and returns the sum of all the integers from 1 up to the number passed as an argument. For example, if 50 is passed as an argument, the function will return the sum of 1, 2, 3, 4, . . . 50. Use recursion to calculate the sum.arrow_forward

Write the recursive function that calculates the total amount of money at the end of the maturity date, based on the condition below. The parameters of the function: capital, initial interest rate and maturity date(months) Note: Codes should be written in C programming language.arrow_forwardRecursive Power FunctionWrite a function that uses recursion to raise a number to a power.

- Computer science C prog Create a recursive function that finds if a number is palindrome or not(return true or false), A palindromic number is a number (such as 16461) that remains the same when its digits are reversed. In the main function asks the user to enter a number then check if it's palindrome or not using the function you created previously.arrow_forwardTo receive an array argument, a function's parameter list must specify that the function expects to receive an array. The size of the array is not required between the array brackets. Select one: True Falsearrow_forward3. Recursive Lines Write a recursive function that accepts an integer argument, n.
