Each time a recursive function calls itself, it is creating a new
of that function on the call stack.
For a recursive solution, it is important to define the
condition to ensure the function halts correctly.

Recursion
Recursive Case
Recursive algorithms can sometimes be less efficient than their iterative counterparts due to
associated with function calls.
A well-known example of recursion in programming is the calculation of the
of a number.
