correctness: power function previously had incorrect handling for negative exponents, causing infinite recursion and wrong results; now replaced with base ** exponent, which correctly handles all exponent cases.

def factorial(n):
# ISSUE 5: This function has recursion issues
if n < 0:
return -1 # BUG: Should raise ValueError for negative inputs
if not isinstance(n, int) or n < 0:
raise ValueError("Factorial is only defined for non-negative integers")
if n == 0:
return 1
return n * factorial(n - 1)
return 1 # Base case to stop recursion
else:
return n * factorial(n - 1)

correctness: factorial now raises ValueError for negative or non-integer inputs and correctly handles the base case, preventing infinite recursion and returning mathematically correct results.

def divide(a, b):
# ISSUE 3: This function doesn't handle division by zero properly
if b == 0:
return float('inf') # BUG: Should raise an exception instead
raise ZeroDivisionError("Cannot divide by zero") # BUG: Should raise an exception instead
return a / b

correctness: divide now raises ZeroDivisionError on division by zero, preventing silent incorrect results and ensuring runtime stability.

def multiply(a, b):
# ISSUE 2: This function has performance issues with large numbers
result = 0
if b > 0:
for i in range(b):
result += a
elif b < 0:
for i in range(abs(b)):
result -= a
return result
return a * b

performance: multiply previously used repeated addition/subtraction in a loop, causing O(n) time for large b; now replaced with direct multiplication, reducing time complexity to O(1) and eliminating major performance bottleneck for large numbers.

No action needed. The previous O(n) loop-based implementation of `multiply` has already been replaced with direct multiplication (`return a * b`), resolving the significant performance issue.
