i’m trying to solve this problem recursively. i have checked the answer but i’m still confused why is my solution wrong? as in what am i doing wrong? how do i think better for recursive problems?
thank you devs for your insights.
**Your code so far**
function sumAll(arr) {
//assigning variables to starting and ending range
let [first,second]= [Math.min(arr[0],arr[1]),Math.max(arr[0],arr[1])]
//if the first no reaches the second number
if(first==second){
return first
}
//add one to the upcoming number until second is reached
return 1+sumAll([first+1,second])
}
// sumAll([5, 10])
console.log(sumAll([10, 5]))
/**
* 20,25
* 20+1
* (20+1)+1
*
