This column is about recursion: functions, subroutines, and even whole computer languages defined in terms of themselves. Recursion is a direct and elegant way to translate certain mathematical relations into programs, and it's a great technique for discovering efficient algorithms. Given its utility, you might wonder why people seldom use it.
