How do I think about recursion.

12 Nibble
I got the idea for problems like factorials or finding sum from 1 to n, where there's a pattern visible. Like this:

I got it for things like addition, subtraction, division, multiplication of two numbers as well.

eg: a+b

=a+b-1+1

=SUM(a+1,b-1)

Now, I am wondering how it'll be for finding a palindrome of a number? I've a solution but I'm not understanding how we came towards it.

Iterative approach for solving problems. Quite helpful when repetition occurs.
