Problem

Consider the following recursive function:public static int mystery(int a, int b){if (b ==...

Consider the following recursive function:

public static int mystery(int a, int b){if (b == 0) return 0;if (b % 2 == 0) return mystery(a+a, b/2);return mystery(a+a, b/2) + a;}

What are the values of mystery(2, 25) and mystery(3, 11)? Given positive integers a and b, describe what value mystery(a, b) computes. Answer the same question, but replace the three + operators with * and replace return 0 with return 1.
