Overview of Iterative Functions
Explore how iterative functions work in Python by examining loop structures and conditional statements. Learn to implement the factorial calculation using iteration. Understand the flow of iterative functions and prepare to compare iteration versus recursion in coding challenges.
What is Iteration?
Iteration means repeating some steps to achieve the desired outcome. In computer programming, iteration processes usually involve a mechanism, including loops.
As we learn about recursion, it is also important to have an overview of iteration.
Format of an Iterative Function
Each iterative function consists of a loop and a ...
