What is the base case in recursion?
Think of it as the stopping point of recursive calls.
True or False: A recursive function can operate without a base case.
Consider what happens if there’s no stop.
Write a recursive function to reverse a string and explain how the base and recursive cases work.
Consider how the string is broken down into smaller sections.
