What is returned as a result of calling puzzle(22, 11)?

Question

public static int puzzle(int i, int j) {

if (i == j) {

return 0;

} else {

return 1 + puzzle(i – 2, j – 1);

}

}

Answer 1

11
i and j are decreasing by a factor of 2 and 1 respectively,
intitially i = 22 and j = 11,
recusion calling will stop when i==j, and it will reach when both i and j becomes 0,
recusion call ocuurs 11 times, 10 times it gave 1 and it last it gave 0,
so final result will be

1+1+.. 11times = 11
