Ch 12 Recursion Mr. Dave Clausen La Cañada High School 8/4/2019 Chapter 12: Recursion Mr. Dave Clausen La Cañada High School Mr. Dave Clausen

Recursion: Definitions Ch 12 Recursion 8/4/2019 Recursion: Definitions Recursion The process of a subprogram (function) calling itself. A clearly defined stopping state must exist. The well defined termination of the recursive process. Any recursive subprogram could be rewritten using iteration (for, while, do…while) Recursive step A step in the recursive process that solves a similar problem of a smaller size and will eventually lead to a termination of the process. 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen Mr. Dave Clausen

Recursive Problems in Mathematics Factorials The definition of factorials is as follows: 0! = 1; 1! = 1; for n>1, n! = n*(n-1)*(n-2)*…2*1 To find n! you can calculate n*(n-1)! Each step solves a similar problem of smaller size. Fibonacci sequence The first term is 1, the second term is also 1, and every successive term is the sum of the previous two terms. An Arithmetic Series using sigma notation 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Recursive Example 4 Arithmetic Series (sigma) Example P668ex1.cpp P668ex1.txt int sigma(int n) { if(n <= 1) return n; else return n + sigma(n-1); } 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Sigma Example Function Calls If we call the sigma function with the statement, sum=sigma(5) the else portion of the first function calls the function again, return 5 + sigma(4); at this point the value of sigma (4) must be computed this calls return 4 + sigma (3) which calls return 3 + sigma(2) then return 2 + sigma(1) finally this returns the value of 1. 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Visualizing the sigma Function Calls return 5 + sigma(4) return 4 + sigma(3) return 3 + sigma(2) return 2 + sigma(1) return 1 at the end of the recursive calls the steps are reversed for assigning the values. return(2+1) (=3) return(3+3) (=6) return(4+6) (=10) return(5+10) (=15) 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Stacks Imagine a stack as a pile of trays in a cafeteria. The last tray put on the stack is the first one taken off of the stack. This is what occurs in memory when a subprogram calls itself. A stack is a dynamic data structure where access can be made only from one end. This is called a Last In First Out (LIFO) structure. 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Stack Animation Level 5 n: 1 Sigma: Level 4: n: 2 Sigma: 3 6 10 15 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

Reverse Print Recursion Example This example will read a character of text from a file until a period is read. It then uses recursive techniques to print the text in reverse order. Revprint.cpp Revprint.txt This is a short sentence. .ecnetnes trohs a si sihT 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen

The Costs and Benefits of Recursion A recursive process that requires N recursive calls uses N+1 units of stack memory and processor time to manage the process. An equivalent iterative process always uses one stack of memory and processor time to manage the function call, therefore, recursion requires more memory and processor power than the non-recursive process. Benefits Short, simple & elegant solutions using divide & conquer algorithms (solve the problem by repeatedly dividing it into simpler problems.) 8/4/2019 Mr. Dave Clausen
