About Recursion

It's not that bad

There's a lot of discussion online about recursion, but most of it missed the mark as I've been studying the topic.

So instead of the usual things that get said when trying to teach recursion, I'm going to say a couple things that help me:

  1. Yes, recursion is calling a method inside of itself; however....
  2. The parameter/argument that's passed into the 2nd method call must change the input...typically by reducing the original parameter by one, or by half (or some other amount)
  3. It helps to think of Ruby as "pausing" the 1st call, and then "starting" the second call....and then "pausing" the 2nd call, and starting the 3rd call...etc
