    • The factorial function is often given by a recursive definition: n! = n * (n-1)! for n > 0.
    • In computer science, a recursive definition of a tree structure states that a tree is either empty or consists of a node with subtrees that are themselves trees.
    • The set of natural numbers can be defined recursively: 0 is a natural number, and if n is a natural number, then n+1 is also a natural number.
