Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 13RE
Consider the following method:
public static int f(int a)
{
if (a < 0) { return -1; }
int n = a;
while (n > 0)
{
if (n % 2 == 0) // n is even
{
n = n / 2;
}
else if (n == 1) { return 1; }
else { n = 3 * n + 1; }
}
return 0;
}
Perform traces of the computations f(−1), f(0), f(1), f(2), f(10), and f(100).

Java Program: Recursive Method
There are n people in a room where n is an integer greater then or equal to 2. Each person shakes hands once with every other person. What is the total number of handshakes in the room? Write a recursive method to solve this problem with the following header:public static int handshake(int n)where handshake(n) returns the total number of handshakes for n people in the room. To get you started if there are only one or two people in the room, then:handshake(1)=0handshake(2)=1

Write a recursive method gcd(m,n) to find their Greatest Common Divisor. Method body: If m is 0, the method returns n. If n is 0, the method returns m. If neither is 0, the method can recursively calculate the Greatest Common Divisor with two smaller parameters: One is n, the second one is m mod n (or m % n). The recursive method cannot have loops. Note: although there are other approaches to calculate Greatest Common Divisor, please follow the instructions in this question, otherwise you will not get the credit. main method: Prompt and read in two numbers to find the greatest common divisor. Call the gcd method with the two numbers as its argument. Print the result to the monitor.
