Write a recursive method to compute the power of x< sup >n< /sup > for non-negative n.
Recursive Method
A method in programming that calls itself in order to solve a problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable parts.
Power of X
Refers to a mathematical operation where a number (X) is raised to the power of another number, indicating multiplication of X by itself a certain number of times.
- Implement recursion to tackle issues by devising recursive procedures, including those for factorial and power calculations.

Final Answer :
public static int powerint x,int n)
{
ifn < 0)
{
System.out.println"Illegal argument to power");
System.exit0);
}
ifn > 0)
return powerx,n-1)* x);
else
return1);//base case
}
{
ifn < 0)
{
System.out.println"Illegal argument to power");
System.exit0);
}
ifn > 0)
return powerx,n-1)* x);
else
return1);//base case
}
