Program Plan Intro

Recursive method:

A method which is called again and again by itself is called as recursive method. With the help of recursive method, it is possible to solve certain problems more quickly and easily.

Base case: The recursion method contains a base case which is used to halt the recursion.

Recursive call: When the function itself calls the same function is called as recursive call.
