prev  |  next  |  chance

Using the following mathematical fact, a * b = a * (b - 1) + a define a recursive function that when passed two integers, returns their product without using the * operator or any loops.


multiplyRecursive(10, 500) → 5000
multiplyRecursive(-19, 2) → -38
multiplyRecursive(10, -5000) → -50000

...Save, Compile, Run (ctrl-enter)

int multiplyRecursive(int a, int b) { }
