Recursion Visualization - Algorithms
Recursion is a concept that is best understood through visualization. In this video, you will see visualization for different kinds of recursions. For simplicity, I chose to animate recursive functions using trees. Properties of the recursion tree visualizations are:
Each node represents a single recursive function call.
The height of the recursion tree is the depth of our function call stack.
The rate of change of the tree's width represents the time complexity of our function.
If you want to see the visualizations, dive right in.
