Re: Proper tail recursion

[Chris Maden <crism@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to Frank, Brandon, Russell Steven Shawn, Dan, and David for
explaining tail recursion.  I had carefully implemented all my loops
assuming that the full function recursed always, and tried to minimize
the info passed around (using indices into lists instead of sublists,
for instance).

I see the error of my ways now, and I'll be re-writing a lot of code
in the next couple of weeks.
