Program to calculate power using recursion
#include <stdio.h>
int power(int n1, int n2);
int main()
{
int base, powerRaised, result;
printf("Enter base number: ");
scanf("%d",&base);
printf("Enter power number(positive integer): ");
scanf("%d",&powerRaised);
result = power(base, powerRaised);
printf("%d^%d = %d", base, powerRaised, result);
return 0;
}
int power(int base, int powerRaised)
{
if (powerRaised != 0)
return (base*power(base, powerRaised-1));
else
return 1;
}
Enter base number: 3
Enter power number(positive integer): 4
3^4 = 81
First understand the algorithm carefully. Then study the program line-by-line and compare it with the output. Finally, review the explanation section to strengthen your logic and programming understanding.
Rewrite the program without looking at the code. Modify values, conditions or logic and run it again. This helps improve confidence and strengthens coding skills much faster.
