def num(n): if n==0: return 0 if n==1: return 1 else: return ((num(n-1)+num(n-2))) print (num(5)) Here, you have called the function with int 5 so n=5 num(5-1) + num(5-2) ------------------------------ | num(4) + num(3) | | num(3) + num(2)+num(2) + num(1) | | | | num(2)+num(1) | num(1)+num(0) | | | | | | | 1+0 + 1 + 1+0 + 1 + 0 + 1 if n==1: return 1 if n==0: return 0 1+0+1+1+0+1+0+1 = 5

Code Crasher pencil and paper will do. you are experienced enough to get a foot into recursion. give it a try... it is fascinating

Punit Kumar yes it is and it takes a while. but it us worth it. Do you agree?

This is Fibonacci series.. A pain in the *** , sorry but it's really difficult. It's often set as an example when teaching recursion. The iterative alternative of your code is : first,second = 0,1 for i in range(n): # e.g.: n=5 first, second = second, first+second print(first)

It is fibonachi series 01123581321 so each number in set is a sum of 2 previous( first in set is 0 second is 1)

According to your code you will get the output as 5

It is a recursive function which can call itself. In this situration you call it with the parameter 5 which is "n". n is not 0 or 1, so the function call itself again with the new parameters until n is 0 or 1. Be careful that the very first function called is the last one which comoletes. Just draw a dragram as Lay_in_life says.

num(5) ↓ num(4)+num(3)→num(2)+num(1) ↓ . num(3)+num(2) ↓ num(2)+num(1)→1 ↓ num(1)+num(0) ↓ ↓ 1 0 num(2)=1 num(3)=num(2)+num(1)=1+1=2 num(4)=num(3)+num(2)=2+1=3 num(5)=num(4)+num(3)=3+2=5

Answer is 5 bro. num[5]=num[4]+num[3] =num[3]+num[2]+num[2]+num[1] And here given for num[1]=1 and num[0]=0 so, =num[2]+num[1]+num[1]+num[0]+num[1]+num[0]+1 =num[1]+num[0]+1+1+0+1+0+1 =1+0+1+1+0+1+0+1 =5
