I learned recursion in C. Visualizing the stack, which was encouraged for whatever reason in the books I was reading, was useful to me.

In a Ponzi Scheme, one concentrates on the stock, rather than the stack, I think... ;)

What books were those? Sounds useful, I'd like to read that too.

there might have been others but that was the main one where afterward recursion no longer confused or scared me.

there may be other books that are far more suitable. i would be surprised if there weren't, even. but that's the one i used.

I checked the author, Eric Roberts, and it looks like recursion is his specialty. Good reference, thanks for the link!
