Why tail-recursive functions are loops

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-06 12:10:54

One story every computing enthusiast should hear is the lesson of how loops and tail-recursion are equivalent. We like recursive functions because they’re amenable to induction, and we can derive them in a way that is in direct correspondence with the definition of the datatype over which they recur. We like loops because they’re fast and make intuitive sense as long as variables don’t change in too tricky a way. In general, recursive functions are slower than loops because they push stack fram
