Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 13, Problem 4D
Explanation of Solution
A program for “recPower(a,n)” is given below,
#Define the function
def recPower(a, n):
#Check whether the power is "0"
if n == 0:
#Return "1"
return 1
#Otherwise
else:
#Make a recursive call
factor= recPower(a, n//2)
#Check whether "n" is "even"
if n%2 == 0:
#Return the value calculated
return factor * factor
#Otherwise
else:
