``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.''
