Create a program that uses recursion to guess a number that a user selects. (try to mimic how a human might guess a number in the middle of the search space and then cut the search space in half after receiving a clue of "higher" or "lower") Prompt the user for a lower limit, upper limit, and magic number (the magic number should be between the limits, but not include the limits). Ensure appropriate error checking for bad input. Use recursion to make guesses until the magic number is discovered. Base subsequent guesses off of "higher" or "lower" hints after each guess. Use functions where appropriate; include docstrings.

Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of integers, starting with 1, where the value of each number is the sum of the two previous numbers, e.g. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, etc. Write a function called fibonacci that takes a parameter, n, which contains an integer value, and have it return the nth Fibonacci number. (There are two ways to do this: one with recursion, and one without.)
I need the code from start to end with no errors and the explanation for the code ObjectivesJava refresher (including file I/O)Use recursionDescriptionFor this project, you get to write a maze solver. A maze is a two dimensional array of chars. Walls are represented as '#'s and ' ' are empty squares. The maze entrance is always in the first row, second column (and will always be an empty square). There will be zero or more exits along the outside perimeter. To be considered an exit, it must be reachable from the entrance. The entrance is not an exit.Here are some example mazes:mazeA7 9# # ###### # # ## # # #### # ## ##### ## ########## RequirementsWrite a MazeSolver class in Java. This program needs to prompt the user for a maze filename and then explore the maze. Display how many exits were found and the positions (not indices) of the valid exits. Your program can display the valid exits found in any order. See the examples below for exact output requirements. Also, record…
a. Prompt the user to type a word on console and save the input into variable b. Implement recursive method(s) isPalindrome() to check if the given word is a palindrome and call it from the main(). c. Implement recursive method(s) theLength() to calculate the length of the given word (its number of characters) d. Display your results on console in the following format: "You word palindrome." consists of_ characters, this a e. Explain in comments the algorithms you use (how the recursion works, where is the base case, there is the recursive call(s), how you reduce the problem complexity).
Please complete the following Java program using the math.random function. USE THE Math.random() class. DO NOT use arrays, the Random function. (i.e keep the program simple using while loops, if/else, for loops, etc)
Given a string str and number n, write a program that recursively appends a copy of string str n times and returns the resulting string. For example: RecuriveCopy("a", 10) // -> "aaaaaaaaaaa" RecursiveCopy("blah", 5) // -> "blahblahblahblahblahblah" For this exercise, complete the following function. n is the number of copies to add to str: function RecursiveCopy(str, n) { // your code here } Part 2: Call RecursiveCopy Write another function that calls RecursiveCopy() and returns the following string output: "The resulting string [x] has [y] characters". [x] should be replaced by the result from RecursiveCopy) and [y] should be replaced by the number of characters in the resulting string. You may pick the arguments to RecursiveCopy in CountChars or have the user provide input. I will leave this up to you. function CountChars() { } // your code here // call RecursiveCopy(..) // returns a formatted string For example: console.log(CountChars()) // -> "The resulting string blahblahblahblah…
Given the sequence, S2 = 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, … Write a RECURSIVE method called “sequence2” that takes a single int parameter (n) and returns the int value of the nth element of the sequence S2. You will need to determine any base cases and a recursive case that describes the listed sequence. Use the following code to test your answers to questions 3 and 4the output should print the two sequences given (S & S2): public class TestSequences { public static void main(String[] args) { for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { System.out.print(sequence(i) + " "); // 2, 4, 6, 12, 22, 40, 74, 136, 250, 460 } System.out.println(); for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { System.out.print(sequence2(i) + " "); // 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14 } } // *** Your method for sequence here *** // *** Your method for sequences2 here *** } // end of TestSequences class
In math you can implement recursive functions like square root or power Given nul is an instruction for multiplying in MIPS, write a function that is recursive that calculates the power. This does not need to work with a string of input, can be a single operation done. Please make sure your user prompt allows the user to know how to use this calculation.
In this programming assignment you will implement one or more of the integer multiplication algorithms described in lecture. To get the most out of this assignment, your program should restrict itself to multiplying only pairs of single-digit numbers. You can implement the grade-school algorithm if you want, but to get the most out of the assignment you'll want to implement recursive integer multiplication and/or Karatsuba's algorithm. So: what's the product of the following two 64-digit numbers? 3141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592 2718281828459045235360287471352662497757247093699959574966967627 [TIP: before submitting, first test the correctness of your program on some small test cases of your own devising. Then post your best test cases to the discussion forums to help your fellow students!] [Food for thought: the number of digits in each input number is a power of 2. Does this make your life easier? Does it depend on which algorithm you're implementing?]…
In Python implement a recursive function named test() that accepts an integer parameter. If the parameter value is even then the test function should divide the parameter value by 2 and return this value. If the parameter value is odd, then the function should return 3 times the parameter value + 1. Then request a user to enter an integer number and recursively call converge() on that number until the function returns the value 1.
Write a recursive function that returns the smallest integer in an array. Write a test program that prompts the user to enter a list of five integers and displays the smallest integer.
# Exercise 1. Implement the algorithm covered in lectures that determines if an integer n is prime. Your function should return True, if n is prime, and False otherwise. Your algorithm has to be effective for n ~ 1,000,000,000,000.def isPrime(n):
1. Write a recursive method expFive(n) to compute y=5^n. For instance, if n is 0, y is 1. If n is 3, then y is 125. If n is 4, then y is 625. The recursive method cannot have loops. Then write a testing program to call the recursive method. If you run your program, the results should look like this: > run RecExpTest Enter a number: 3 125 >run RecExpTest Enter a number: 3125 2. For two integers m and n, their GCD(Greatest Common Divisor) can be computed by a recursive function. Write a recursive method gcd(m,n) to find their Greatest Common Divisor. Once m is 0, the function returns n. Once n is 0, the function returns m. If neither is 0, the function can recursively calculate the Greatest Common Divisor with two smaller parameters: One is n, the second one is m mod n. Although there are other approaches to calculate Greatest Common Divisor, please follow the instructions in this question, otherwise you will not get the credit. Meaning your code needs to follow the given algorithm. Then…
