A man invests Rs. 5000 at 8% per annum simple interest. How much will be his total amount after 3 years?

The correct answer is A: Rs. 6200. Simple Interest = (P × R × T)/100 = (5000 × 8 × 3)/100 = 1200. Total = 5000 + 1200 = 6200

In the TCS coding assessment, candidates encounter problems requiring recursion. What is the critical factor that prevents infinite recursion?
