ple.. briefly describe the purpose of having a base case and a recursive case in a recursive algori..

Answer / arka

Lets assume factorial function defined recursively:
int fact(int n)
{
if(n==0||n==1)
return(1); //base case
else
return(n*fact(n-1)); //recursive case
}
the necessity for recursive case is simply recursion
whereas the base case is needed to terminate the recursion.
eg:fact(4)=>4*fact(3)=>4*3*fact(2)=>4*3*2*fact(1)=4*3*2*1.
for fact(1) hte base case is satisfied and the function
fact is not called again.
