What is the difference between recursion and loops?
An example of an AI chatbot conversation about recursion and loops in programming.
What is the difference between recursion and loops?
Recursion is a function that calls itself, while loops repeat a block of code until a condition is met.
Can you give me an example of recursion?
Sure! A classic example is the factorial function, where n! = n * (n-1)! until n is 0.
And how does a loop look for the same factorial calculation?
In a loop, you would use a for or while loop to multiply numbers from 1 to n, accumulating the result.
Which one is more efficient?
Loops are generally more memory efficient than recursion, as recursion can lead to stack overflow for large inputs.
