## Overview
**Recursion** in R is used to describe a situation in which a  function calls itself. This condition forms a loop so that whenever the function is called, it calls itself again and again.

Recursion in R allows us to loop through data to reach a result.

## Example




# creating a function with x as its parameter value
recursion_Fxn <- function(x) {
  # intoducing an if statement
  if (x > 0) {
    result <- x + recursion_Fxn(x - 1)
    print(result)
  # introducing an else block 
  } else {
    result = 0
    return(result)
  }
}
# calling the function 
recursion_Fxn(6)

#    
## Code explanation
* Line 2: We create a recursion function, `recursion_Fxn()`.
* Line 4: We use the variable `x` to loop through the function.
* Line 5: `x` is added to `x` with a decrement of `1` at every point of recursion. This output is added to another variable, `result`.
* Line 9: The recursion ends when the `result` variable becomes equal to `0`.
* Line 13: We call the recursion function and pass `6` as the argument to the function.



How to perform a recursion in R

Recursion in R involves a function calling itself, looping through data until a specific condition is met to terminate the loop. Example: `recursion_Fxn(6)`.
