C++ FUNCTIONS (2020) - What is recursion? Learn recursive functions! PROGRAMMING TUTORIAL

Recursion is a process in which a function invokes itself, and the corresponding function is called a recursive function.
Recursion is one of those topics in programming that often confuses students, and in this video, I'm explaining how recursion works and also comparing different solutions to the same problem (using loops and using recursion)

Finally after a few days of sleepless nights thinking how recursion works I finally manage to understand the logic of recursion in this video. Thanks!

[sohumramouthar]

She literally explains this better than my University Professor who has a PhD😂😂😂

[claritydive]

I've searched Youtube and Google and this is the best beginner-friendly explanation I've seen on recursion!

[goldensands]

9:35 commenting and keeping track of what is happening is really smart, thank you for teaching us like that

[zuhairanwar]

If first number is larger than second number, no need to swap values, just call the function with reversed arguments in an else block, like,
if (n<=m) cout << recursiveSum(n, m); else cout << recursiveSum(m, n);

Finally found this channel! She is more better than my university professor 👨‍🏫!

Thanks a lot, Saldina for these amazing videos, they are very helpful.
Code for finding the factorial with a recursive function,
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int recursive_factorial(int num){
if(num == 1)
return num;
return num * recursive_factorial(num - 1);
}

int main()
{
cout << "Enter Number : ";
cin >> num;

cout << "Factorial of " << num << " is " << recursive_factorial(num);

return 0;
}

Another banging lesson. Here's my attempt at the factorial excersise

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int factorial(int n) {
if (n <= 1)
return 1;
return n * factorial(n - 1);
}

int main()
{
int n;
cout << "Enter a number: ";
cin >> n;
cout << "Factorial = " << factorial(n);

system("pause>0");
}

After traveling through so many channels at last I found the real logic of recursions Thanks Ma'am

[aditisingh]

You are the greatest!!! Never change..you're an inspiration!

[wolfflayergaming]

I have watched so many videos on recursion and this is the first time I can say I understand it fully. Thank you so much.

[NEONARMOR]

Thank you so much, everytime I don't understand something, I come to your channel and problem solve, the way you explain is just amazing

[georgeallan]

You save me as I am having my final exams tomorrow. still struggling to catch up on my reading but this clears it all. Appreciate your hardwork! Definitely subscribing. Tropical Greetings from the Pacific!

[fernandotrovao]

I teach in Montreal and I found this to be best and simplest explanation ever. This is what I was looking for.

[icode]

Very simple, Very unique, Very clarity..!!!
God sent you on this planet to save us 🤗😍

[deep-lofi]

I found a well explainer on YouTube, I learned a lot from you Mam, thank you so much😍Love from Pakistan.
