Overview
Recursion is used extensively in programming and is a very powerful programming paradigm. It effectively solves complex problems with simple recursive solutions and sets the base for high-level algorithms like divide and conquer and dynamic programming. It also serves as the core of tree and graph traversal algorithms. Irrespective of your language, framework, or system, you will always be using some recursive algorithm under the hood.
Representation of recursion
Fundamentals
This course teaches you the fundamentals of recursion and how it works under the hood. It provides you with code implementations and detailed explanations of recursion in the most intuitive way to help you thoroughly understand this core computer science concept. We go step by step to explore what a process looks like when executed and how recursive function calls work.
Problems Solving
This interactive course involves high-quality problems and is deeply focused on problem-solving. It bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and common interview problems by explaining the most common interview problems on recursion. This will help you gain confidence and understand how to convert your learning into action. By the end of the course, you will be pretty confident that you can solve any recursion problem thrown at you.
