When recursion is used to solve a problem, why must the recursive method call itself to solve a smaller version of the original problem?

Recursion is the best and the fastest way to solve any problem.True or False

In a recursive algorithm, the goal is to solve a problem by breaking it into smaller sub-problems to solve. This is accomplished by constructing an algorithm using two important components. What are these components, what is the purpose of each?
