Selected Answer: A
A. 6 Explanation: >> func(x) runs recursively using return x + func(x-1). Assigning the argument 3 runs as follows: func(3) = 3 + func(2), func(2) = 2 + func(1), func(1) = 1 + func(0), func(0) = 0 (which triggers the if statement ending the recursive loop and returning 0). These values are equivalent to 3+2+1+0, so the output is 6
