Question
Consider the following snippet of Java code:
int sumHelper(int n int a) {
}
'
if (n= 0) return a;B
else return sumHelper(n-1, a + n*n);
int sumSqr(int n) { return sumHelper(n, 0); }
Your Task: Prove that for n ≥ 1, sumSqr(n) → 1² +2² + 3² + ... + n². To prove this, use induction to
show that sumHelper computes the “right thing." (Hint: How did we prove fact_helper in class?)
