You Might Not Need that Recursive Function in JavaScript
Too Long; Didn't Read
In programming, we’re often faced with situations where the answer appears to require solving the same problem an indeterminate number of times. Recursion is extremely important in programming and many problems can only be solved by using it. But recursion can be slower, fill up the call stack, and can be conceptually trickier. In this post, I explore an example of a problem that seems to lend itself to a recursion solution. The motivation for this post example came from an excellent StackOverflow answer that I have adapted.
