Interactive Quizzes

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

Question 1

What is the purpose of a base case in recursion?

  • To prevent infinite loops
  • To always return a value
  • To create an error

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about why we want to stop a function from calling itself forever.

Question 2

Can recursion lead to stack overflow?

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: This can happen if the base case is not properly defined.
