Previous post: Next post: Python #11-Functions in Python Python #13-Let's Play with Python part-1-Fibonacci Series What is recursive function? A recursive function is a function which is called by itself.. Example: def decreasingorder(num): if num==0: print "values is Zero" else: print num decreasingorder(num-1) decreasingorder(2) #calling function with argument 2 Here decreasing order is the recursive function. I have called the function inside the same function. Inside the else. I have called the decreasing order function to perform the operation. Program Explanation: First of the Input to the function should be passed. For eg: I have passing (2) to the decreasingorder function. It will check whether given number
