    Study Notes

    Recursive Methods

    • A successful recursive method requires special cases to address the simplest computations directly.
    • Implementing a recursive call is essential to break down complex problems into simpler ones.
    • Mutual recursion is not a requirement for a method to be considered recursive.

    getArea Method

    • The getArea method is an example of a function that determines the area, commonly seen in geometry-related classes.
    • The method likely includes conditions to verify dimensions, such as width and height, ensuring it handles various scenarios correctly.
    • Proper implementation involves using return statements to provide the calculated area back to the calling context.
