  1. algorithm - recursion versus iteration - Stack Overflow

    Feb 23, 2020 · And the recursion itself, more directly, means putting the function calls and scopes in a stack. But changing your recursive algorithm to a looping one might need a lot of work and make …

  2. recursion - Tower of Hanoi: Recursive Algorithm - Stack Overflow

    Aug 3, 2009 · Although I have no problem whatsoever understanding recursion, I can't seem to wrap my head around the recursive solution to the Tower of Hanoi problem. Here is the code from Wikipedia: …

  4. recursion - Determining complexity for recursive functions (Big O ...

    Nov 20, 2012 · 47 One of the best ways I find for approximating the complexity of the recursive algorithm is drawing the recursion tree. Once you have the recursive tree: Complexity = length of tree from root …

  5. What is the difference between iteration and recursion?

    Feb 19, 2016 · 4 The main difference between recursion and iteration is memory usage. For every recursive call needs space on the stack frame resulting in memory overhead. Let me give you an …

  6. How to use recursion in creating a binary search algorithm

    However when coding something of this complexity I am confused on how to use it to my advantage. Therefore my question is how do I apply recursion when coding a binary search algorithm. And if you …

  7. Is Dijkstra's algorithm dynamic programming? - Stack Overflow

    May 6, 2024 · Considering Dijkstra's algorithm the clasic solution is given by a for loop and is not a dynamic algorithm solution. However, From a dynamic programming point of view, Dijkstra's …

  8. What is recursion and when should I use it? - Stack Overflow

    There are a number of good explanations of recursion in this thread, this answer is about why you shouldn't use it in most languages.* In the majority of major imperative language implementations …

  9. performance - Recursion or Iteration? - Stack Overflow

    Jun 24, 2011 · Recursion has a disadvantage that the algorithm that you write using recursion has O (n) space complexity. While iterative aproach have a space complexity of O (1).This is the advantange …

  10. Convert recursion to iteration - Stack Overflow

    In recursion the computer maintains a stack and in iterative version you will have to manually maintain the stack. Think over it, just convert a depth first search (on graphs) recursive program into a dfs …
