Summary: Add tail recursion
Initial Comment:
Consider the following code:
def fac(m):
def iter(acc,n):
if n <= 0 :
return acc
else:
return iter(acc * n, n - 1)
return iter(1,m)
#When called wtih a large parameter, you get exceed the recursion limit
fac(10000)
In a future release, I suggest updating the interpreter and byte code compiler
to handle tail recursion properly as in scheme.
