Recursive Code for OH Bonds and Sum

The document contains two programming tasks involving recursion in C. The first task is to count the number of OH bonds in a user-provided chemical formula, while the second task sums the elements of an array using recursion. Both tasks include code implementations and user input prompts.

QUES 1.

Write a code to determine number of OH bonds in the user given compound using
recursion. For example, input in form Mg(OH)2 as MGOHOH.

SOL.

#include<stdio.h>

#include<string.h>

int bond(int n, char a[], int count, int size) {

if (a[n] == 'O' && a[n + 1] == 'H') {

count++;

if (n < size - 2) {

return bond(n + 1, a, count, size);

} else {

return count;

int main() {

char a[100];

printf("enter the formula in capital letters:");

scanf("%s",a);

int c = strlen(a);

int count = bond(0, a, 0, c);

printf("Number of OH bonds: %d\n", count);

return 0;

OUTPUT:
QUES 2. Write a program to sum of array elements using recursion.

SOL.

#include<stdio.h>

int sum(int a[], int n) {

if(n == 0)

return 0;

else

return *a + sum(a+1,n-1);

int main() {

int n;

printf("Enter enumber of elements:");

scanf("%d",&n);

int a[n];

printf("Enter elements");

for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)

scanf("%d",&a[i]);

printf("Sum of elements = %d",sum(a,5));
