python: Convert a for loop into a recursion function

Question

First of all, I\'m still a newb to python so please take it easy on me.

I\'ve done my research and I have a basic understanding of how to write a recursive function

Answer 1

Here is an example approach to recursively go through a dictionary, assuming that each child is also a dictionary:

def compute(my_dict):
    if 'children' in my_dict:
        print my_dict['children']
        for child in my_dict['children']:
            compute(child)
