         return false;
      }
      if (myArray[size-1] == element){
         return true;
      }
      return searchArray(myArray, element, size-1);
   }
   public static void main(String args[]){
      System.out.println("Enter the required size of the array: ");
      Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
      int size = s.nextInt();
      int myArray[] = new int [size];
      System.out.println("Enter the elements of the array one by one ");
      for(int i=0; i

Output
Enter the required size of the array:
5
