The process of solving large problems by breaking them down intosmaller, more simple problems that have identical forms. ThinkingRecursively: A small text to solve large problems. Concentrating onthe practical value of recursion. this text, the first of its kind,is essential to computer science students' education. In thistext, students will learn the concept and programming applicationsof recursive thinking. This will ultimately prepare students foradvanced topics in computer science such as compiler construction,formal language theory, and the mathematical foundations ofcomputer science. Key Features:
* Concentration on the practical value of recursion.
* Eleven chapters emphasizing recursion as a unifiedconcept.
* Extensive discussion of the mathematical concepts which helpthe students to develop an appropriate conceptual model.
* Large number of imaginative examples with solutions.
* Large sets of exercises.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I finally GET IT
    Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2012
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Recursion was something I could never fully grasp. I understood what recursion was by definition, but I couldn't construct a recursive function, nor could I spot a pattern that could be defined recursively. With no exaggeration, I had a glorious moment while reading this book when I finally truly understood recursion. It hit me, that epiphany finally came, and my eyes grew wide with excitement as I stepped into a whole new world.

    This book shows you how to structure your thoughts, and how not to get lost in recursion. After reading this book, I began to wonder how my computer science teachers were so awful at teaching this concept. Recursion is powerful and beautiful. If you're wanting to take your programming to the next level and finally understand recursion, this book does just that.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Good but there are better books
    Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2020
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Thought I’d weigh in on this one as I had purchased it based on the reviews. In short there is nothing new here you can’t find in other sources. The only real benefit is that it is in one book.

    The language used for the ideas is ancient but has a syntax that looks exactly like pseudo-code. So it is easy to adapt the code to something in this century.

    The author does a well enough job in explaining the ideas behind recursion. I still feel in general there is some hand waving going on but he does walk through the problems.

    You can find everything here in Skienna’s algorithms though you’ll have to do much more reading though I feel the explanations here are a tad simpler.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A book for learning how to think
    Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2000
    Format: Paperback
    I bought this book as a recommendation of Aho's Foundation of Computer Science in order to develop intelligent recursive algorithms. However, this book is not a programming book (althought it helps programmers a lot) but a very interesting mathematical book showing a whole new way to think with the aid of some classical examples.
