How to write a recursive method to return the sum of digits in an int?

Question

So this is my code so far.

    public int getsum (int n){
        int num = 23456;
        int total = 0;
        while (num != 0) {
            total += num         


        

Answer 1

    import java.util.Scanner;
public class Adder {
    public static void main(String[] args){
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
        System.out.println();
        int number = input.nextInt();
        System.out.println("The sum of the digits is " +adder(number));

    }
    public static int adder(int num){
        int length = String.valueOf(num).length();
        int first , last , sum;
        if (length==1){
            return num;
        }
        else
        {
            first = num /10;
            last = num % 10;
            sum = last + adder(first);
        }
        return sum;
    }
}
