재귀는 순차적 프로그래밍보다 순수한 함수형 프로그래밍에서 훨씬 더 많은 역할을 한다. 재귀
는 ‘루프’를 구현하는 순수한 방법이다. 순수 함수형 프로그래밍에서는 루프 변수를 변경할 수
없기 때문이다.
계승 계산은 재귀의 좋은 예다. 다음은 순차적 루프를 사용한 자바 구현이다.

Head of Cybersecurity
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Field Engineer
I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.
Amir M.
Data Platform Tech Lead
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
