Introduction to the use of recursive functions in js
Let’s try a factorial within 10:

<script type="text/javascript">
function f(num){
if(num<1){
return 1;
}else{
return f(num-1)*num;
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert("10!的结果为："+f(10));
</script>
</body>
</html>That’s all for calling recursive functions
The insurance method when js recursive functions call themselves.
From js advanced programming
A typical factorial recursive function:
function fact(num){
if (num<=1){
return 1;
}else{
return num*fact(num-1);
}
}The following code can cause an error:
var anotherFact = fact;
fact = null;
alert(antherFact(4)); //Error
Because fact is no longer a function, an error occurred.
The problem can be solved with arguments.callee, which is a pointer to the function being executed.
The new function is:
function fact(num){
if (num<=1){
return 1;
}else{
return num*arguments.callee(num-1); //此处更改了。
}
}
var anotherFact = fact;
fact = null;
alert(antherFact(4)); //结果为24.Improvements of ordinary recursion in JS
Recursive functions are formed when a function calls itself by name, as shown below:
function factorial(num)
{
if(num<=1)
{
return 1;
}
else
{
return num * factorial(num-1);
}
}This is a classic factorial function. On the surface, there seems to be no problem, but the following code may cause it to go wrong.
var anotherFactory = factorial;
anotherFactorial(4); //Output 24
factorial = null;
anotherFacttorial
(4); //TypeError: Property 'factorial' of object [object Window] is not a
Test under function chrome
The reason is that the function name we defined is actually a pointer to the function, and anotherFacttorial is defined at this time
It also points to that function, so calling anotherFactory (4) can successfully output 24
At this time factorial = null;
Then the reference to the execution definition function is anotherFactorial, and the above error message will be displayed when calling anotherFactorial(4).
At this time, arguments.callee can be used to replace factorial in the function definition.
The definition of the function becomes:
function factorial(num)
{
if(num<=1)
{
return 1;
}
else
{
return num * arguments.callee(num-1);
}
}Then using the above 4 lines of test code, the last line of test code can also successfully output 24.
