c语言递归数组求和sum,递归地对数组中的整数求和

我有一个程序,我正在尝试为类返回使用递归的数组中所有整数的总和.这是我迄今为止的计划:

public class SumOfArray {

private int[] a;

private int n;

private int result;

public int sumOfArray(int[] a) {

this.a = a;

n = a.length;

if (n == 0) // base case

result = 0;

else

result = a[n] + sumOfArray(a[n-1]);

return result;

} // End SumOfArray method

} // End SumOfArray Class

但我相信,我得到的三个错误都是相关的,但我无法弄清楚为什么它会找到一种null:

SumOfArray.java:25: sumOfArray(int[]) in SumOfArray cannot be applied to (int)

result = a[n] + sumOfArray(a[n-1]);

^

SumOfArray.java:25: operator + cannot be applied to int,sumOfArray

result = a[n] + sumOfArray(a[n-1]);

^

SumOfArray.java:25: incompatible types

found :

required: int

result = a[n] + sumOfArray(a[n-1]);

^
