boucle récursive

Anglais

recursive loop

A recursive loop is said to have occurred when a function, module or an entity keeps making calls to itself repeatedly, thus forming an almost never-ending loop. Recursive constructs are used in several algorithms like the algorithm used for solving the Tower of Hanoi problem. Most programming languages implement recursion by allowing a function to call itself.

Recursive loops are also known simply as recursion.
