Factorial and Recursion
Explore recursion by learning how to write a factorial function in Rust. Understand how recursive functions call themselves and why Rust prefers iteration over recursion for performance and safety. This lesson helps you build more complex logic using conditionals and recursion.

Now that we have conditionals, we can start to put together more sophisticated programs than we’ve seen so far. Let’s write a function to compute factorials. Factorials multiply all the numbers down to 1. For example, the ...
