Seems like a bad sign either way. Even in conventional languages like C, recursion is a better fit for tree and graph algorithms, which is why they included recursion in the language.

Also, a recursive algorithm can always be implemented iteratively by using an explicit stack. Finally, I'd note that a five-line solution is probably always better than a 100 line one (assuming ...

Some inventions operate in a recursive or iterative manner. This could be so of a machine that repeats actions or functions on a single article or to produce multiple articles, or operates on data ...

In this paper we propose a recursive online algorithm for estimating the parameters of a time-varying ARCH process. The estimation is done by updating the estimator at time point t - 1 with ...

An iterative/recursive algorithm is studied for recovering unknown sources of acoustic field with multifrequency measurement data. Under additional regularity assumptions on source functions, the ...
