Suppose a program contains a recursive method findFibonacci(int n), which computes the n-th Fibonacci number. Even if we know that a client method will never call findFibonacci( ) with the values 1 or 2 as arguments, why does the implementation of findFibonacci( ) still need to have base cases?
What will be an ideal response?
In the course of findFibonacci’s own recursion it will eventually reach values of n = 1 or 2 that it passes to itself. If these are not identified as base cases, then the recursion will logically continue forever, which is incorrect.
