Wikipedia

  1. recursive routine

    Recursion (adjective: recursive) occurs when a thing is defined in terms of itself or of its type. Recursion is used in a variety of disciplines ranging from linguistics to logic. The most common application of recursion is in mathematics and computer science, where a function being defined is applied within its own definition. While this apparently defines an infinite number of instances (function values), it is often done in such a way that no infinite loop or infinite chain of references ("crock recursion") can occur.

  1. recursive routine

    A recursive routine, also known as a recursive function or method, is a programming routine that calls itself in its own code. This is used to solve problems that can be broken down into smaller, similar problems. Each time the routine calls itself, it operates on a smaller or simpler subset of the original data. The recursive calls continue until the problem can be solved without further recursion. It's characterized by having a base case which determines when to stop the recursion, and the recursive case which performs the recursion.
