- SML programming Write a recursive function np(n) which takes a non negative n and generates a list of numbers from n+1 down to 0. You may assume that input of n is always valid.

Given the following recursive definitionseq(1) = seq(2) = 1seq(n) = 2 ∗ seq(n − 1) + 3 ∗ seq(n − 2)implement the corresponding program and use it to calculate seq(5).How many invocations are made to the function seq when calculating seq(5)?arrow_forward

Use recursion to write a function count_ones that returns how many Is there are in a number n when represented in decimal (base 10). For example, 1231 has two 1s. You can assume that n is nonnegative and at most 9 digits long. Do not use global (or static) variables. In main perform at least three tests of count_ones and use assert to check that the returned value is correct. Your function should have the following prototype: // count_ones (n) returns the number of is in the decimal representation of n // requires: 0 <= n < 10^9 int count_ones (int n);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_forward
