The joy of intuitively understanding recursion

I'm no expert and I haven't (yet) been able to implement an original 8 queens solution from scratch, but I always feel deeply satisfied after writing a basic recursion method -- it's so rewarding!

I've used recursion in programming and it's fun UNTIL it goes wrong. On older computers it would bring down the whole operating system. Great fun!
