Write a recursive function program to find the nth element in the following arithmetic numerical sequence: 3, 11, 27, 59, 123,

following are the code in c++

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

//fuction to find nth term of the sequence

int val(int n){

  if(n==1){

      return 3;

  }else{

      return val(n-1)+8*pow(2,n-2);

  }

}

// driver fuction

int main(){

  int n;

  cout << "Which element of the sequence would you like to know?\n";

cin >> n;

//checking for input less than 1

do{

   if(n<1)

   {

   cout<<"Please enter a  number greater than 0:"<<endl;

   cin>>n;

   }

}while(n<1);

//printing the output

cout<<n<<"th element of the sequence is: ";

cout << val(n);

}

Explanation:

in the given code, if user enter input less than 1 then it will again ask for the input greater than 0 . When the input is greater than 0,it calls the recursive function  with the parameter n .if the input is 1 then function will give 3 as output. And when input is greater than 1, the recursive function will return nth element of the given sequence.

output

which element of the sequence would you like to know?                                                                      

-1                                                                                                                          

Please enter a  number greater than 0:                                                                                      

0                                                                                                                          

Please enter a  number greater than 0:                                                                                      

5                                                                                                                          

5th element of the sequence is: 123

the best that can be interferred in this except is that molina has taken up the cause of abused and disadvantaged kids through his foundation. and that the chance to live up to clemente's legacy was a motivating factor for him to continue defending those who are in an unfavourable possition.
