Summary: Anywhere you would iterate you can also recurse. They are computationally equivalent. And once you get your head around it recursion is just as intuitive. But it usually results in less code and fewer opportunities for bugs among other nice properties.

If you have to get your head around it, by definition its not intuitive. And I've seen far more bugs in recursive versions of algorithms than the equivalent iterative ones.
