Recursion In Programming And What It Means. by Yungmakaveli01(op): 4:15am On Jul 01, 2023
Recursion has to do with the concept of defining a term in terms of itself
an example can be the definition of a persons ancestor which can be defined
in a series of different ways,
1. An ancestor is a parent,
2. An ancestor is an ancestor of a parent, or grand parent and...

This concept that seems a little bit confusing if you are encountering it for the first
time in programming is a relatively amazing technique that can be used to write
complex programs in simple line of codes.
you can checkout this video on youtube where I used recursion to traverse through the
nodes of a binary tree and others that pretty much talks about this same concept in the
channel

Still on B.Tree and Recursion...


Do you know that the runtime of a program can be greatly influenced based on the algorithm that was implemented? 😲

Check out this video below to see how long it took to count a series of nodes in a Binary Tree with these three different implementations:

📚 Stack
🔄 Queue
🔄 Recursion
