Recursive Functions
Recursive Functions in python
In Python, a recursive function is a function that calls itself. Recursive functions can be used to solve problems that can be broken down into smaller problems of the same type.
Here is an example of a simple recursive function in Python that calculates the factorial of a number:
def factorial_example(n):
if n == 1:
return 1
else:
return (n * factorial_example(n-1))
factorial_example(5)
