Largest By Recursion

Complete largest(values: list[int]) -> int so it returns the largest value in a non-empty list by recursion, without max(). This time the recursive case is written for you and the base case is missing: add the check at the top of the body that returns the only item when the list's len() is 1, so the recursion stops instead of running until Python raises a RecursionError. Do NOT write a main block or any top-level test code; the tests construct the calls. Input: one line of integers separated by spaces, at least one, which the tests read into a list and pass to your function before printing the value it returns.

Expected Output:

9

= newline. The output ends with a newline — print one after the last line.
