What method calls itself Java?
In Java, a method that calls itself is known as a recursive method. And, this process is known as recursion. A physical world example would be to place two parallel mirrors facing each other. Any object in between them would be reflected recursively.

yes, a static method it can call itself recursively.
What is an example of a recursion?
A classic example of recursion
For example, factorial(5) is the same as 5*4*3*2*1 , and factorial(3) is 3*2*1 .
A method or algorithm that repeats steps by using one or more loops. recursive: A method or algorithm that invokes itself one or more times with different arguments.

2Recursive Thinking

Many common problems can be stated in terms statement from the base case separated values (.csv) list: oA list can contain one item (the base case) oA list can contain one item, a comma, and a list (the inferred sequence of steps)

3Recursive Thinking

The above definition of a list is recursive because the second portion of the definition depends on there already being a definition for a list

The second portion sounds like a circular definition that is not useful, but it is useful as long as there is a defined base case

The base case gives us a mechanism for ending the circular action of the second portion of the definition

4Recursive Thinking

Using the recursive definition of a list:

A list is a: number

A list is a: number comma list

Leads us to conclude 24, 88, 40, 37 is a list

number comma list

24 , 88, 40, 37

number comma list

88 , 40, 37

number comma list

40 , 37

number 37

5Recursive Thinking

Note that we keep applying the recursive second portion of the definition until we reach a situation that meets the first portion of the definition (the base case)

Then we apply the base case definition

What would have happened if we did not have a base case defined?

6Infinite Recursion

If there is no base case, use of a recursive definition becomes infinitely long and any program based on that recursive definition will never terminate and produce a result

This is similar to having an inappropriate or no condition

7Recursion in Math

One of the most obvious math definitions that can be stated in a recursive manner is the definition of integer factorial

The factorial of a positive integer N (N!) is defined as the product of all integers from 1 to the integer N (inclusive)

That definition can be restated recursively

1! = 1 (the base case)

N! = N * (N 1)! (the recursion)

8Recursion in Math

Using that recursive definition to get 5!

5! = 5 * (5-1)!

5! = 5 * 4 * (4-1)!

5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * (3-1)!

5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * (2-1)!

5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1! (the base case)

5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

5! = 120

9Recursive Programming

Recursive programming is an alternative way to

A Java method can call itself

A method that calls itself must choose to continue using either the recursive definition or the base case definition

The sequence of recursive calls must make progress toward meeting the definition of the base case

10Recursion versus Iteration

We can calculate 5! using a loop

int fiveFactorial = 1; for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) fiveFactorial *= i;

Or we can calculate 5! using recursion

int fiveFactorial = factorial(5); private int factorial(int n) retur == 1? 1 : n * factorial(n 1);

11Recursion versus Iteration

factorial(5)main factorial factorial factorial factorial factorial factorial(4) factorial(3) factorial(2) factorial(1) return 1 return 2 return 6 return 24 return 120

12Recursion versus Iteration

only one variable containing the factorial value in the process of being calculated

In the recursive calculation, a new variable n is created on the system stack each time the method factorial calls itself

As factorial calls itself proceeding toward the base case, it pushes the current value of n-1 As factorial returns after the base case, the system pops the now irrelevant value of n-1

13Recursion versus Iteration

only one addition (i++) and a comparison (i<=5) needed to complete each loop

In the recursive calculation, there is a comparison (n==1) and a subtraction (n - 1), but there is also a method call/return needed to complete each loop

Typically, a recursive solution uses both more memory and more processing time than an iterative solution

Direct versus Indirect

Recursion

Direct recursion is when a method calls itself

Indirect recursion is when a method calls a second method (and/or perhaps subsequent methods) that can call the first method again

15Calling main( ) Recursively

Any Java method can call itself

Even main()can call itself as long as there is a base case to end the recursion You are restricted to using a String [] as the parameter list for main() The JVM requires the main method of a class to have that specific parameter list

16Calling main( ) Recursively

public class RecursiveMain public static void main(String[] args) if (args.length > 1) {

String [] newargs = new String[args.length - 1];

for (int i = 0; i < newargs.length; i++) newargs[i] = args[i + 1]; main(newargs); // main calls itself with a new args array

System.out.println(args[0]);

return; java RecursiveMain computer science is fun fun is science computer
