Program Plan Intro

Recursive Power Method

Program Plan:

  • Global variable declaration:
    • Initialize the variable “minimum” as “1”.
    • Initialize the variable “maximum” as “100”.
  • Define the “main()” function:
    • Initialize the variable “number” is “0”.
    • Initialize the variable “exp” is “0”.
    • Get the input from the user and store it to the variable “number”.
    • Check the value of “exp”
      • If it is less than “minimum” or greater than “maximum”, then get the exponent “exp” from user.
    • Call the function “recursivePower()” and pass the two arguments “number” and “exp”.
    • Display the result on the output screen.
  • Define the “recursivePower(x, y)” function:
    • Check the value of “y”
      • If it is equal to “0”, then returns “1”.
      • Otherwise, call the function “recursivePower()” recursively along with the arguments “x” and the decremented value of “y”.
      • Display the result on the output screen.
  • Call the “main()” function.

Recursive Power FunctionWrite 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 that the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Demonstrate the function in a program.
