Tracing Recursive Function Calls and Returns in C++
Construct a hand trace of a simple recursive C++ function that shows call order, base-case activation, return order, and final value.

Constructing Recursive Specifications for Scalar Integer Problems
Derive a recursive specification for a scalar integer problem by defining the smaller input, base-case result, and rule for using the recursive result.

Deriving Index-Based Recursive Specifications
Derive an index-based recursive specification for a one-dimensional array or string problem by defining the index boundary, current-element rule, next index, and use of the recursive result.
