# [[C Recursion]]
## 🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)
Every recursive function in the source's examples relies on a single structural guarantee: the function ONLY calls itself when a shrinking condition still holds (`k > 0`, `n > 0`, `n > 1`) and returns a plain value OTHERWISE — the source's own warning that recursion "can be quite easy to slip into writing a function which never terminates" is really pointing at what happens if that shrinking condition is missing or wrong, not at recursion itself being inherently risky. [S1]
## 🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)
- **Recursion** — a function calling ITSELF, breaking a complex problem into smaller instances of the same problem. [S1]
- **Base case** — the condition under which the function STOPS calling itself and returns directly (e.g. `k > 0` becoming false), essential for termination. [S1]
- **Unwinding accumulation** — each recursive call's `return` combines its own contribution with the result of the smaller sub-call (`return k + sum(k - 1);`), building up the final answer as calls return in reverse order. [S1]
- **Risk of non-termination or excess resource use** — without a solid base case, recursion can run forever or exhaust memory/processor time. [S1]
## 📖 세부 내용 (Details)
- Summing 1 to 10 via recursion: `int sum(int k) { if (k > 0) { return k + sum(k - 1); } else { return 0; } }` — unfolds as `10 + (9 + (8 + ... + sum(0)))`. [S1]
- Countdown via recursion: `void countdown(int n) { if (n > 0) { printf("%d ", n); countdown(n - 1); } }` — stops calling itself once `n` reaches 0. [S1]
- Factorial via recursion: `int factorial(int n) { if (n > 1) { return n * factorial(n - 1); } else { return 1; } }` — factorial(5) = 5×4×3×2×1 = 120; by definition 0! is also 1. [S1]
## ⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)
- **재귀의 종료 조건이 핵심 위험 요소**: 종료되지 않는 함수나 과도한 메모리/CPU를 쓰는 함수를 실수로 작성하기 쉽다는 경고가 있지만, 이는 결국 축소 조건(base case)이 없거나 잘못됐을 때 발생하는 문제임이 예제들에서 공통적으로 드러남. [S1]
## 🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)
5의 팩토리얼(5×4×3×2×1=120)을 재귀로 계산하는 예제가 원문에서 직접 실전 활용 사례로 제시됨. [S1]
## 💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)
A recursive function with a clear base case that guarantees termination (C):
```c
int factorial(int n) {
if (n > 1) {
return n * factorial(n - 1);
} else {
return 1; // base case
}
}
```
