Functions can be recursive. So the algorithm that the agent generates is able to use divide-and-conquer.
- YeGoblynQueenne 6y agoYes, but the "functions" in the paper are implemented as two extra types of instruction- one representing a function call and one representing the "return" point of the function. So again, the difference is not clear. An instruction is an instruction, but some instructions are function calls (or returns). Why not just call them all "instructions", or all "functions"?
