Question

Asking you to provide source code in C++ that is commented, outlines file headings (.cpp and .h), and shows sample output of working functionality. Program and requirements listed below:

PROGRAM

Write out a function that uses recursion in order to raise a number to a power. This function should accept two arguments. The first argument is the number to be raised and the second is the exponent. Make an assumption that the exponent is not a negative integer. Show that the function is correctly working for several values.

Explanation / Answer

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;
int findExponent(int x, int y)
{ if(y<0)
return -1;
if(y<=0)
return 1;

return findExponent(x,y-1)*x;
}
int main()
{
int x,y;
int ex;
cout<<"enter the numer: ";
cin>>x>>y;
while(y<0)
{
cout<<"Please enter positive number"<<endl;

cout<<"if you want then enter y/n";

char c;

cin>>c;

if(c=='n')

break;

cin>>y;

}

if(c=='n'){

cout<<"you have not enter correct input"<<endl;

return 0;

}

ex=findExponent(x,y);
cout<<"raising value is: "<<ex;
}

Ouptpu: if x=3, y=4

then output is 81;

if x=4, y=5

then output is 1024
