Definitions:

Iterative Solution

A method of solving a problem by repeatedly using a set of operations until a certain condition is met.

Limiting Condition

A condition or set of conditions that define the boundaries or constraints within which a process or function operates.

Base Case

In recursion, the base case is a condition that stops the recursion by not making a call to itself, thus avoiding an infinite loop.

Recursive Algorithm

An algorithm that solves a problem by dividing it into smaller problems of the same type, calling itself with these smaller problems.
