So I know that this is something simple that can be done without a recursion function but I need to know the backside to this as I can't seem to figure out how to write this using recursion. im using this so far
n = int(raw_input("What is n? "))
def digit(n):
if n< 10:
return 1
else:
new = n/10
print 1 + digit(new/10)
return 1 + digit(new/10)
digit(n)
Now if I type in a number such as 33 then it outputs 2 but if I do a longer number then it doesn't print it properly and I was unsure as to what exactly it wrong with it.
#!/usr/bin/python
n = int(raw_input("What is n? "))
def digit(n):
if n < 10:
return 1
else:
return 1 + digit(n/10)
print digit(n)
