Recursion and Effects

Explore recursion concepts including tail recursion and its optimization in functional programming. Understand the impact of side effects and shared state, and learn techniques to manage them for predictable, maintainable Clojure code.

Recursion

In functional programming, we say we prefer recursion over looping to iterate over collections. That’s because looping relies on a state to iterate over a collection, while in recursion, we don’t need to do that. Plus, it fits better ...
