3. A palindrome is a sentence that contains the same sequence of letters read-ing it either forwards or backwards. A classic example is "Able was I, ere I saw Elba." Write a recursive function that detects whether a string is a palindrome. The basic idea is to check that the first and last letters of the string are the same letter; if they are, then the entire string is a palindrome if everything between those letters is a palindrome. There are a couple of special cases to check for. If either the first or last character of the string is not a letter, you can check to see if the rest of the string is a palindrome with that character removed. Also, when you compare letters, make sure that you do it in a case-insensitive way. Use your function in a program that prompts a user for a phrase and then tells whether or not it is a palindrome. Here's another classic for testing: "A man, a plan, a canal, Panama!"

Write the following program in Racket: Remember there are no loops in a pure functional language so anything you need to do multiple times must be done using recursion. Write a function dates_in_month that takes a list of dates and a month (i.e., an int) and returns alist holding the dates from the argument list of dates that are in the month. The returned list shouldcontain dates in the order they were originally given. To make your life easier you may want to write an append function to be used in this one. It should take two list and append the second onto the first. Include your test cases please
In this lab, we will practice: Implementing recursive function printing in a recursive function (before and after the recursion function call) working on setting the base and general cases for the recursion function Instructions Write a recursive function called print_num_pattern() to output the following number pattern. Given two positive integers as input (Ex: 12 3), subtract the second integer (3) from the first one (12) and print the result continually until 0 or a negative value is reached. Then continually print the result of the addition of the second integer to the last value you reached from the subtraction (zero or negative) until the first integer is reached again. Note: For this lab, do not end output with a newline. Ex. If the input is: 12 3 the output is: 12 9 6 3 0 3 6 9 12 Hint You do not need to actually do addition. You can write statements i.e. printing statements after the recursion function call.
Write a recursive function that takes a positive integer and returns the factorial of that integer. Attention, the function must be recursive, and its name must be "fatorial".
language: Python Problem: Write a recursive function reverse(sentence) for reversing a sentence. For example, reverse('Who let the dogs out?') will return '?tuo sgod eht tel ohW'. Also write a test case in the program to prove the function given works.
Write a recursive function that takes as a parameter a nonnegative integer and generates the following pattern of stars. If the nonnegative integer is 4, the pattern generated is as follows: **** *** ** * * ** *** **** Also, write a program that prompts the user to enter the number of lines in the pattern and uses the recursive function to generate the pattern. For example, specifying 4 as the number of lines generates the preceding pattern.
Write a recursive function that returns a value of 1 if its string argument is apalindrome and zero otherwise.* Note that for the function parameters, you need to accommodate for the shrinkingstring, so that the string shrinks both from beginning and end after each recursive call.** Think about the simple cases or base cases. The 2 base cases have conditions thatwould return 0 and return 1 independently.For the palindrome, create a driver program. First ask the user to enter anystring through the keyboard. Then remove all the spaces and punctuations from thestring. Also, remove any letter capitalization from the string. Finally, pass the string tothe palindrome function through a function call.
What is the return value of the function call Comp(4, 5), given the recursive function Comp defined below: int Comp(int a, int b) { if (a + b <= 6) return 3; else return Comp(a-1, b) + Comp(a, b-1); }
In Kotlin, Write a higher-order function that takes two arguments and returns a String. The first argument is a String and the second is a function that takes a Char and returns a Boolean. Your function should return a String containing those of the characters in the original String for which the function returns true. Use a tail-recursive helper function. Remember to make sure you get the tail recursion right by using the tailrec annotation. Test the function

Write a recursive function that returns true if the digits of a positive integer are in increasing order; otherwise, the function returns false. Also, write a program to test your function.
