Recursion is advanced?

Recursion is best taught in C?

Sadly so, even for some CS graduates (at least here in India).

Personally though, recursion helps me in recruitment process as this is a quick test to filter candidates.

I was shocked when I took CS papers at the number of people who just could not grasp recursion.

My first job out of Uni I pretty much got the interview because the sample code I sent in had recursion in it.

I occasionally think I should recommend lisp to people who don't get it, but I'm not sure it wouldn't just break them.
