Write Python Program to Find Sum of List Elements Using Recursion

def add_list_elements(L, n):
    result = 0
    if n == 1:
        return L[0]
    else:
        return (L[n - 1] + add_list_elements(L, n - 1))
    

L = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Sum = add_list_elements(L, len(L))
print(f'Summation of Element of List {L} = {Sum}')

Output:

Summation of Element of List [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] = 15
