Multiple Choice

Why is the following method one which has infinite recursion? public int infiniteRecursion(int n)
{

• B) because the base case will never be true
• C) because the recursive call does not move the parameter closer to the base case
• D) because the recursive call moves the problem further away from the base case
• E) None of these; this method isn't infinitely recursive
