A recursive call is when a function calls itself within its own code, allowing for repetitive execution of the same set of instructions.
congrats on reading the definition of Recursive Call. now let's actually learn it.
Base Case: A base case is the condition that stops the recursion by providing an exit point for the function.
Recursion Depth: The recursion depth refers to the number of times a function has called itself.
Tail Recursion: Tail recursion occurs when the recursive call is the last operation performed in a function.
