Recursive+Problems+and+Pictures(Kyle+SKabelund)

Have a picture or a shape and keep drawing it again at a different angle. Maybe explain how it could be used in real life. I think one is already on the site. But, i think it would be cool to maybe improve it, or expand on the program.

Vicki: I'm not sure how drawing it at a different angle is recursion. To be honest, the original ILM (though fun to look at) doesn't really help in explaining the concept of recursion.

Mr. Weeks Maybe there is a way to graphically show recursion--something along the lines of a recurrence tree in []

or a flowchart (like []

or some other animation.

We have recursion in the new math core starting with 9th graders where before it was not in the high school math curriculum at all. So something not specifically tied to a programming language could be useful. Some of the recursion that we do in math is for representing infinite sequences so we don't have terminating conditions.
