Create a recursive function that finds if a number is palindrome or not(return true or false), A palindromic number is a number (such as 16461) that remains the same when its digits are reversed. In the main function asks the user to enter a number then check if it's palindrome or not using the function you created previously.

- Problem Statement for Recursive Sum of Numbers Program Here is a simple recursive problem: Design a function that accepts a positive integer >= 1 and returns the sum of all the integers from 1 up to the number passed as an argument. For example, if 10 is passed as an argument, the function will return 55. Use recursion to calculate the sum. Write a second function which asks the user for the integer and displays the result of calling the function. Part 1. Understand the Problem To design a recursive function, you need to determine at least one base case (the base case returns a solution) and a general case (the general case calls the function again but passes a smaller version of the data as a parameter). To make this problem recursive think about it like this: If the integer is 1, the function will return 1. If the integer is 2, the function will return 1 + 2 = 3. If the integer is 3, the function will return 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. . . . For this problem, we will be sending in the "last"…arrow_forwardExponent y Catherine Arellano mplement a recursive function that returns he exponent given the base and the result. for example, if the base is 2 and the result is 3, then the output should be 3 because the exponent needed for 2 to become 8 is 3 (i.e. 23 = 8) nstructions: 1. In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for two integer inputs: 1. The first integer is the base 2. The second integer is the result 2. Furthermore, you are provided with the getExponent() function. The details of this function are the following: 1. Return type - int 2. Name - getExponent 3. Parameters 1. int - base 2. int - result 4. Description - this recursive function returns the exponent 5.

A string is a palindrome if it reads the same forwards or backwards. Recall that str.charAt(a) will return the character at position a in str. str.substring(a) will return the substring of str from position a to the end of str,while str.substring(a, b) will return the substring of str starting at position a and continuing to (but not including) the character at position b.
