Recursion, FOR/WHILE LOOP with some overhead

In this video, we will learn why what Recursion is, why do we usually say "every Recursion solution has a LOOP solution and vice versa" and how to effectively use Recursion interchangeably with LOOP.

Hey there, glad to meet again with a simple enquiry.
I learned that a recursive stored condition may cause crash of sql application as this kind of procedure will keep calling by itself until a
condition is met?
What is a good practice to handle these procedures?
Thanks a lot.
