When I was first introduced to recursion, I was worried that I was never going to understand it. The lab and the in class tracing exercise we did really helped me comprehend recursion. I really appreciated that the lab had different examples of functions that used recursion. This made me wish we were given such good examples for everything we did previously in class. I feel like I have a really good grasp on recursion now.
This week, after the first term test, I lost a bit of hope in computer science. The difficulty of the test was one I expected however, I found it very challenging to answer what was asked during the period of time we were given. Hopefully with practice, I can learn to manage my time better for the second term test.
Hey Mariko! Thanks for the comment, and I'm sad to hear that you're losing hope. It's a lot harder writing stuff down on paper than actually doing it with the computer, but it definitely gets better with practice. Have you tried writing a recursive function yet?
ReplyDeleteHey! We wrote recursive functions in the lab this week, as you probably know, and I understood and was able to do it which is really exciting!
