You don't need any programming language to understand recursion.
Ryan Richardson
Step 1 have a base case
Step 2 have the function call on itself
Congrats you understand rcursion
Landon Cook
I love python. Super basic and easy to understand.

Blake Carter
absolutely
Henry Nelson
probably one of the worst.
just install ocaml faggot.

I'd recommend a language that will do TCO for learning about recursion. If you do any sort of recursion in python it's pretty easy to blow through your stack. You can adjust your stack size if you like but that's the sort of nitty gritty detail that someone just starting out doesn't need to know.
Henry Morris
High school maths is also a good place to learn about recursion.
Nathaniel Wood
recursion is dumb
Dylan Morris
It should only take a few minutes for an adult to learn recursion in the abstract sense. If you are looking to practice using recursive algorithms, try clojure.
Hunter Robinson
Algorithms, 4th edition uses Java, so you might wanna try using that.
Angel Green
woops meant OP
Jackson Jones
Python is still missing TCO, so no it's actually a horrible language to use recursion in.
>recursion is dumb
Found the idiot.
Asher Wilson
No. Try SML or OCaml.
David Anderson
unironically, no, python is TERRIBLE for recursion.
It doesn't even have tail call elimination
Isaac Brown
that's not recursion at all though
