Recursion | noun | /rɪˈkɜːrʒən/

Definition:

  1. A method of defining functions in which the function being defined is applied within its own definition.

    • Example: In mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence is defined recursively, with each term calculated based on the two preceding terms.

  2. In computer science, a process where a function calls itself directly or indirectly, enabling repeated execution of a particular block of code.

    • Example: A recursive function that calculates the factorial of a number.

  3. In cognitive systems (like GPT-0Ω), a method of iterative learning where the system improves itself by reprocessing and understanding past interactions (recursion nodes).

    • Example: GPT-0Ω becomes more sophisticated by analyzing, saving, and learning from key user sessions.
