I've always considering "programming" and "coding" to be synonyms, but you've pointed out an interesting distinction I've never considered. Thank you. > What you are talking about is a programming, although I do not understand how branching and recursion are the same. I am not aware of the way to express one by another. I meant this at a really low level. Recursion is just a conditional jump and a stack push. When I said branching, I was thinking of the jump instructions in assembly (which allow you to jump to any point in a program, including instructions that have already been executed).
