Write a recursive void function that has one parameter that is a positive integer.  When called, the function writes its argument to the screen backward.  That is,, if the argument is 1234, it outputs the following to the screen: 4321.   I've literally tried to create this program and I have no idea how to make it work.  Please help me.  Is it possible to explain line by line what the code does?
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.
