When we were working on recursion, we did discover that a laptop can only process so many recursive calls at a time. We took out a few recursive calls and the problem was solved. So with that in mind, do I need to tell the students to worry about how many objects they put in their program or how long it is or anything like that? Does anyone know of anything I need to warn the students of as they plan their projects?
