Base case-Binding Time-Recursive case-Run Time Stack

Question

Describe the terms Base case, Binding Time, Recursive case, Run-Time Stack and Tail Recursion.

Answer 1

Base case: It is a case in recursion, in which the answer is identified when the termination for a recursive condition is to unwind back.

Recursive Case: It is a case that returns to the answer which is closer.

Run-time Stack: It is a run time stack which is used for saving the frame stack of a function when each and every recursion or every call takes place.

Tail Recursion: It is a condition where a single recursive call is consisted by a function and is the final statement to be executed. This can be replaced through iteration.
