recursive functions vs. iterative functions
Recursive functions are functions that call themselves within their code, allowing them to break a problem down into smaller, more manageable subproblems. On the other hand, iterative functions use loops or repeated calculations to solve a problem by repeatedly updating a variable until a desired result is achieved.
