How recursion works in C#

Question

Here\'s my code

using System;
public class Program
{
   public static void Method(int flowerInVase)
      {
         if (flowerInVase > 0)
         {
             


        

Answer 1

The compiler uses writeline only when it's done doing recursion.

It does that because you told it to do that. In your code, first perform the recursion (call Method()) and only when that finishes, you write the number.

If you want to write the number first, before performing recursion, you need to switch of statements in your code:

public static void Method(int flowerInVase)
{
   if (flowerInVase > 0)
   {
       Console.WriteLine(flowerInVase);
       Method(flowerInVase - 1);
   }
}
