Hello,

Although you can call an inline function from within itself, the compiler may not generate inline code since the compiler cannot decide the depth of recursion at compile time. A compiler with a good optimizer can inline recursive calls till some depth fixed at compile-time, and insert non-recursive calls at compile time for cases when the actual depth gets passed at run time.
