Because the algorithm I proposed is going to leverage this idea of recursion which recall was just a piece of jargon we tossed out at the last-- at the end of last week's lecture, last time's lecture recursion really in this context refers to the act of a function calling it's self.

因为我提出的这种算法使用了,递归的思想，这是上周课程的最后,所提出的一个术语，上次的课程中，递归是指,函数的自我调用。
