Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the purpose of the base case in recursion?

  • To stop the recursion
  • To make the function run faster
  • To add complexity

💡 Hint: Think about what happens to the function without this condition.

Question 2

True or False: A function can call itself indirectly through other functions.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider functions working in tandem instead of alone.
