Question

Transcribed Image Text:12. Consider the recursive function (from class) int gcd( int a, int b)
int gcd( int a, int b){
if (b > a) return gcd(b,a);
if ( b == 0 ) return a;
return gcd( b, a% b);
}
How many invocation (calls) of the gcd() function will be made by the call gcd(72, 30) ?

Print out a message "Entering <function_name>" as the first executed statement of each function. Perform the code to test whether every element of the array is a Prime number. Print out a message "Leaving <function_name>" as the last executed statement before returning from the function.

- ‘Write a function nesting(), which takes an arbitrary number of parameters, and returns a list containing the arguments. Write another function unnesting(), which takes a list L as the parameter and retums a 1D list. Notice that, you should be able to use loops to solve thisproblem and should not use recursive functions (which we will not cover in this course). ‘Write assertions to test the two functions.For example nesting(1, nesting(2, 3, nesting(4, 5, [6])), [7, 8], 9)unnesting([1, [2, 3, [4, 5, [6]]], [7. 8], 9]) (1, [2, 3, [4, 5, [6]]], [7, 8], 9][1, 2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 9]arrow_forwardWrite a recursive Racket function "update-if" that takes two functions, f and g, and a list xs as parameters and evaluates to a list. f will be a function that takes one parameter and evaluates true or false. g will be a function that takes one parameter and evaluates to some output. The result of update-if should be a list of items such that if x is in xs and (f x) is true, then (g x) is in the list. The output list's elements should keep the input list's items in the same relative order. For example (update-if even? add1 '(1 2 3 4)) should evaluate to '(3 5) because 2 and 4 make even? true and add1 turns 2 and 4 into 3 and 5.arrow_forwardprogram in C++ with the name, towers.cpp which helps to solve the Towers of Hanoi puzzle using this recursive approach.
