i dont think writing a recursive function is that hard; it takes an hur of instruction to be able to do this.

- schoen 4y agoSome students supposedly require weeks of instruction and/or practice in order to be able to use variable assignment! If there's a kind of instruction that reliably teaches students as a whole to write recursive functions successfully in just an hour, that will be a great advance for computer science education.
- wawjgreen 4y ago@schoen: there is. the problem with traditional teaching methods is that they start from the ground up, without providing a motivation. I would be seriously worried about the state of a world whose denizens need a week or so to learn variable assignment! :)
