I'm making an informal survey of how people represent recursion when drawing flowcharts. Would anyone care to share her ideas? -- David Sims, dsims@uceng.uc.edu

In overview charts I drew a line out of the side of the box representing the recursive routine and routed it back into the top of the same box. In a detailed chart I drew a line out of the side of the symbol representing the block of code that did the call and connected it to the housekeeping block of the routine. -- Jerry Gitomer at National Political Resources Inc, Alexandria, VA USA I am apolitical, have no resources, and speak only for myself. 1-703/683-9090 jerry@npri.com ...uunet!uupsi!npri6!jerry
