Python 2. Recursive Multiplication

Design a recursive function that accepts two arguments into the parameters x and y. The function should return the value of x times y. Remember, multiplication can be performed as repeated addition as follows:

7 3 4 5 4 1 4 1 4 1 4 1 4 1 4 1 4

(To keep the function simple, assume that x and y will always hold positive nonzero integers.)
