Question

How to write a recursive function that calculates power in TypeScript

Answer 1

function Power(x: number, y: number): any {
    if (y == 0) {
        return 1;
    }

    return x * Power(x, y - 1);
}

console.log(Power(2, 3)); // 8
console.log(Power(2, 4)); // 16
console.log(Power(3, 2)); // 9
console.log(Power(3, 3)); // 27
console.log(Power(5, 4)); // 625
console.log(Power(0, 3)); // 0
console.log(Power(8, 0)); // 1
 
 

/*
run:  
  
8
16
9
27
625
0
1
  
*/
