Direct vs. Indirect Recursion
This lesson explains two different types of recursion: direct and indirect recursion.
Direct Recursion
Direct recursion occurs when a function calls itself.
This results in a one-step recursive call: the function makes a recursive call inside its own function body.
Syntax of Direct Recursion
function function1(p1, p2, ..., pn) {
// Some code here
function1(p1, p2, ..., pn);
// Some code here
}
