Recursion is a programming technique where a function calls itself repeatedly, either directly or indirectly, until a base case is reached. It involves defining a function that references itself by invoking a copy of its own definition. Recursion allows programmers to write algorithms that involve repeating a process multiple times in a concise and elegant way.

Recursion
 A method of programming whereby a function directly or indirectly calls itself.  Recursion is the process where a method call itself to be able to perform a certain task.
 The process of repeating the same thing till you are done is called recursion.  Recursion if an important concept in computer science. Many algorithms can be best described in terms of recursion.
Recursion  Recursion is a computer programming technique involving the use of a procedure, subroutine, function, or algorithm that calls itself in a step having a termination condition so that successive repetitions are processed up to the critical step where the condition is met at which time the rest of each repetition is processed from the last one called to the first.
