What if the compiler is tail-recursive?

[–]NonAmerican 7 points8 points ago

There's no need to calculate it with a recursive algorithm. The OP is a phony.

Until the recursive function reposting it causes a stack overflow.

Why would you need a recursive function to compute mass?

[–]proto04 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I like it. It both insults my mother (I think), and makes me feel stupid.

[–]Full_of_confusion 2 points3 points ago

Don't all recursive functions eventually cause an overflow? Or am I just being retarded..

[–]DMac134 5 points6 points ago

only if they never reach the base case.

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

but wit' yo mamma, it only ever reaches the base cake. ooooohhhh

[–]random314 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In your mom's case, the base case requires so much iterations that the computer ran out of memory before it can reach there.

YO Repost

[–]misconfiguration 1 point2 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Most people reading this comic can appreciate the nerdiness without knowing what a recursive function or algorithm is . Although, many probably don't realize this is one of the greatest computer scientists to ever live, co-author of C and then the Unix operating system.

His name is Dennis Ritchie; he along with Ken Thompson and a few others ( Stallman, Knuth, Turing etc ) have revolutionized computing behind the scenes, the true 'hackers' of their day. Without them, we wouldn't be communicating via internets right now.
