Coding Challenge 4: Finding Strings Within Strings by Fayimora(op): 1:43pm On Jul 07, 2011

Challenge
Your task is to implement using ~~iteration~~ recursion a method that checks if a string is in a larger string, i.e a substring in a string.
Given the word "Mississipi" and a String 'sip', your method should return true.

Further more, implement an integer method that returns the starting position of the smaller string, in this case, sip. So in total, given the above inputs you program should print

true
6

Goodluck.
