Recursion

A programming concept where a method calls itself during its execution.

The act of a method calling itself within its own code.

A condition in a recursive method that signals the termination of the recursion.

The movement through recursive calls from the initial call to the base case.

The movement through recursive calls from the base case back to the initial call.

Using recursion to navigate through the elements of an array.

The execution of the current method is complete and the process repeats back to the initial recursive call.

Once the base case is reached, the recursive calls are completed in backwards order.

The base case ensures that the recursive method completes at some point, preventing an infinite loop.

Use a for, for each, or while loop.
