Recursion occurs when the
definition of a
concept or
process depends on a
simpler or
previous version of itself.
Recursion is used in a
variety of disciplines...

recursing,
while from the
point of view of g alone, it is
indirectly recursing,
while from the
point of view of both, f and g are
mutually recursing on...
- recursions. As a result, we are
presented with the
choices of
either recursing on (lo..p) and (p+1..hi), or (lo..p-1) and (p..hi).
Which of the two options...

triangle into four
equilateral triangles,
removing the
middle triangle, and
recursing leads to the SierpiĆski triangle. In
three dimensions, a
similar construction...
-
accordingly as less than or
greater than the pivot. However,
instead of
recursing into both sides, as in quicksort,
quickselect only
recurses into one side...
- example, in a tree,
rather than
recursing to a
child node and then
checking whether it is null,
checking null
before recursing;
avoids half the
function calls...
-
through one

giving digests of each file found, and
recursing into any
subdirectories within. Its
recursive behavior is approximately...
- more
robust implementation would check for a
nonnegative argument before recursing, as follows: fun fact n = let fun fac 0 = 1 | fac n = n * fac (n - 1)...

detect and thus
trigger evaluation or
display of
cycles without infinitely recursing #n=(x y . #n#) The
definition of an atom
varies per context; in the original...

before recursing. This is
useful for efficiency...
