Programming question

Implement the Test5F class and provide the Javadoc comments needed to reproduce the API for the two required methods. You may omit the part of the comments that describe the examples (i.e., document the parameters, the return value (if any), and the method description excluding the examples).

• Some starter code can be found here.
• The API can be found here.
• The Java library API can be found here.
• You have to put your Test5F class in the eecs2030.test5 package.
• You have to use recursion.
• You must not use any kind of for statement or while statement.
• You must not use the classes Arrays and Collections.
• You must not use the methods indexOf, lastIndexOf, or contains from any class that implements List.
• You must not use any class that implements Set or Map.

Submit your program using the following command in a terminal (make sure you are in the directory containing your file Test5F.java):

  /**
   * Returns the string made up of the characters in s starting
   * from index idx and going to the end of s. For
   * example,
   * 
   * endOf("abcdef", 0) returns "abcdef"
   * endOf("abcdef", 1) returns "bcdef"
   * endOf("abcdef", 2) returns "cdef"
   * endOf("abcdef", 3) returns "def"
   * 
   * An empty string is returned if idx is greater than or equal to
   * the length of s.
   * 
   * @param s
   *          a string
   * @param idx
   *          the starting index in s
   * @pre. idx >= 0
   * @return the string made up of the characters in s starting from index idx
   *         and going to the end of s
