ITPEC FE Morning April 2021 Question 9
ITPEC FE Morning April 2021 — Question 9 of 80
Recursive Call — a function that calls itself from within its own body.
A recursive call allows a function to invoke itself to solve smaller subproblems of the same type.
Why not others:
- (b) — describes event-driven execution, not recursion
- (c) — describes keeping a function in memory (closure or caching), not self-invocation
- (d) — describes a rollback mechanism, not recursion
Key rule: Recursion = a function calling itself. Always requires a base case to stop.
