Recursion And Backtracking – Theory

Alright, let’s dive into the “Theory” behind recursion and backtracking! Don’t worry, it’s not as scary as it sounds. We’ll unpack these powerful programming techniques in a friendly way, exploring how the elegant idea of a function calling itself (recursion) and systematically exploring possibilities (backtracking) can solve complex problems with surprising simplicity. Get ready to unravel some fascinating concepts!
