In program i think it’s better to make iterative solutions, i’ll show you why:

Recursive solution:

The difference is that when using a recursion it takes alot of time to print as you can see in the picture, iterative solution printed the answer when recursive solution is still calculating the fibonacci of 100.

It is also convenient to use recursion because an infinite loop occurs with iteration if the loop test never becomes false.

The difference is that iteration ends terminates when the loop condition falls whereas recursion terminates when a base case is recognized.

Here are some of the differences of both: http://malhar2010.blogspot.mx/2010/12/difference-between-recursion-and.html

A recursion is when you make a function and call it inside of itself. The recursion has a condition, this condition is that the recursive function has to have an end (to terminate) in order to be in the program.

A common example of this is the fibonacci sequence:

“i” is the variable that is often used in “for” loops (an iterative loop which means you keep doing something over and over again

For each of the numbers or the things in the range make “i” refer to them and each of those loops is going to refer to each one of those numbers or things

What this program does is that it assigns “i” to every element in that range without including the last number (10)

The “while” loop is a loop (duh) that allows us to repeat actions as long as the condition is true or until the condition becomes false.

This code shows a little example of a while loop:

x is equal to cero and what the “while” means is that when x is lower than three, it will print x and it will turn x into an accumulator that adds one every time that the “while” makes a loop unti x becomes equal or greater than three.
