Re: A question about recursive programming

temp=arr.delete_at(arr.length-1)
b=all_sum(arr)+all_sum(arr).collect{|i| i+temp}

end

c=[1,2]
p all_sum©

Error: in `all_sum’: stack level too deep (SystemStackError)

Can anyone give me some advice?

Hmm,

the b= lines doesn’t make much sense, you may want to replace
them with return statemants.

Note that delete_at modifies the receiver - the original array
(for this and all other recursions). So it won’t work even if
you change the b= to return.
