Recursion is a technique well suited to certain types of tasks. In this first lesson we’ll look at solving a problem that requires the flattening of arrays without using recursion. Showing the shortcoming of a non-recursive solution first will help y…
When using recursion, you must be mindful of the dreaded infinite loop. Using the recursive function that we’ve built up over the previous lessons, we look at how a simple duplicated configuration item could cause chaos for our program as it has no c…
Recursion is when a function calls itself. This self calling function handles at least two cases, the recursive case and the base case. People seem to either love it or hate it because it can be difficult to understand and implement correctly. Let’s…
An introduction to the Web Audio API. In this lesson, we cover creating an audio context and an oscillator node that actually plays a sound in the browser, and different ways to alter that sound. var context = new window.AudioContext() || new window.…
