Side effects here include both writing state such as variables or printed output, and reading any outside state, so that a function without them always returns the same result if passed the same arguments. Since trains and list notation have the same nice properties, tacit code written entirely with primitives, trains, and lists always describes finite, self-contained computations.</p> <p>Recursion is the primary way to perform potentially infinite computations in BQN, and it can be packaged into <a href="control.html">control structures</a> like <code><span class='Function'>While</span></code> for ease of use.
