Recursive Power Method
Write a method that uses recursion to raise a number to a power. The method should accept two arguments: the number to be raised and the exponent. Assume that the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Demonstrate the method in a

Python Programming ONLY PLEASE NO JAVA
Use recursion to determine the number of digits in an integer n.
Hint: If n is < 10, it has one digit. Otherwise, it has one more digit than n / 10.
Write the method and then write a test program to test the method
Your test program must:
Ask the user for a number
Print the number of digits in that number. (describe the numbers printed to the console)
Use program headers and method header comments in your code.
28Recursive methods must always contain a path that does not contain a recursive call.

Palindrome Detector
A palindrome is any word, phrase, or sentence that reads the same forward and backward.
Here are some well-known palindromes:
Able was I ere I saw Elba
A man a plan a canal Panama
Desserts I stressed
Kayak
Write a boolean method that uses recursion to determine whether a String argument is a palindrome. The method should return true if the argument reads the same forward and backward.
Demonstrate the method in a program.
