This is talking about recursion in the grammar of the language. I can't think of a common programming language that doesn't have at least some recursive elements. Nested arithmetic operations are a common example.

I just wanted to extend it (semi-jockingly) to programming. >I can't think of a common programming language that doesn't have at least some recursive elements Sure, but recursion is more idiomatic/powerful in some languages than others. In nested arithmetic operations it is barely apparent.
