Recursion For Programmers (Udemy.com)

Für mich hat sich dieser Kurs gelohnt. Ein Themengebiet, innerhalb des Programmierens, welches gut und verständlich erklärt wird. Dankeschön!

@Huw Collingbourne is by far the best instructor on UDEMY. He carefully explained recursion and provided great examples and documentation. I learn best from seeing code in action and being able to walk through it so Huw's classes are a good match for me.

It is a very good course technically speaking, however, I do not rate it with 5 stars because I was expecting more analogies, more in depth explanations about what recursion is, not to just get examples of recursion being applied. The use of C and Ruby did not help much either.

I wish there was a deeper explanation of the directory navigation program! Otherwise - I wouldn't say recursion clicked immediately for me but it cleared up some confusion around the concept with respect to scoping.

It didn't reach my expectations. I wanted to see more details regarding nested structures and returning values from these nested functions taking in callbacks. There was a lot of mention of the simpler recursive cases, not much beyond that.

Well , first of all kudos to instructor to think about having a course on recursion.If anyone wants to get a good overview of this topic , this is nice course to start with. If the subject of tree data structure is also covered in depth, which is a natural case of recursion and bit more advanced application of recursion , that would be wonderful.

This was a great explainer of Recursion. There is no question that I understand and can visualize recursion much better. The instructor's explanations are thorough and clear. His supporting visuals (with zooms and call outs) are super-helpful...especially for this topic. There are a lot of moving parts. I would love additional practice lessons where the instructor walks us through a few simple applications step by step. Also, I think it would be helpful to see an animated visual of the stack frames as they get added and discarded with the initiation and execution of each recursive call. The instructor explains this really well, but a supporting animation would knock it out of the park.

Huw's courses are great. He explains everything clearly and it's easy to remember what you've learned. Even if you have experience you always learn something useful.

Absolutely brilliant use of the English language to explain in programming detail such a topic. I liked the analogy between recursive function calls and class with its objects in OOD. This made me instantly grasp what is going on. The attention to programming detail of each line of code in what was such an ambiguous topic for me , excellent.

Thanks a lot Huw, great work! Finally a solid explanation what recursion is, main use cases and pitfalls clearly put. The code samples are easy to comprehend and convert to your language of choice, as Java in my case. In my opinion, the only thing that might be added is recursion types - head, tail, linear etc, and when either should be used. Highly recommend!
