+/**
+ * In this kata, you must create a digital root function.
+ * <p>
+ * A digital root is the recursive sum of all the digits in a number.
+ * Given n, take the sum of the digits of n. If that value has two digits,
+ * continue reducing in this way until a single-digit number is produced.
+ * This is only applicable to the natural numbers.
+ * <p>
+ * Here's how it works (Ruby example given):
+ * <p>
+ * sumOfDigits(16)
+ * => 1 + 6
+ * => 7
+ * <p>
+ * sumOfDigits(942)
+ * => 9 + 4 + 2
+ * => 15 ...
+ * => 1 + 5
+ * => 6
+ * <p>
+ * sumOfDigits(132189)
+ * => 1 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 8 + 9
+ * => 24 ...
+ * => 2 + 4
+ * => 6
+ * <p>
+ * sumOfDigits(493193)
+ * => 4 + 9 + 3 + 1 + 9 + 3
+ * => 29 ...
+ * => 2 + 9
+ * => 11 ...
+ * => 1 + 1
+ * => 2
