Thank you, if you can explain the difference for natural languages (not programming languages), I'll replace it :)

PS: According to an English dictionary, the words are synonymous, but fuck it ๐Ÿค“ : by analogy to programming languages, I assume that iterate here would be "repeat this sentence" and recurse would be "go to beginning of sentence", yes?

Sorry i meant a recursive cycle :)

Starts at the beginning and repeats itself over and over.
