-One commonly used programming technique is *recursion*. With this technique, problems are solved by solving similar problems but for smaller cases. We can construct sets of objects or tasks using *recursive rules* and *initial values*. *Recursive functions* are functions that are self-invoking, using smaller sets or elements each time, until reaching a point where an initial value is used instead of self-invoking. Fractals are an example of figures that can be created using recursion. In this laboratory experience you will practice the definition and implementation of recursive functions to draw self-similar objects (fractals).

 Can you see the recursive behavior in this figure? Notice that `branch(0,90)` is only a vertical segment (a segment in an angle of 90 degrees); `branch(1,90)` is `branch(0,90)` with two segments inclined in its top. More precisely, `branch(1,90)` is `branch(0,90)` with a `branch(0,60)` and a `branch(0,120)` in its top. Similarly, `branch(2,90)` is `branch(0,90)` with two `branch(1,90)` inclined in the top. That is, `branch(2,90)` is:

 `branch(0,90)` with a `branch(1,60)` and a `branch(1,120)` in its top. Notice that $$60=90-30$$ and $$120=90+30$$.

 In the `main` function, look up the line where the variable `level` is declared and given a value. Change the value of `level` to `0` and run the program. You'll be able to see the triangle that represents the recursive base case for the snowflake. Continue changing the value for `level` and running the program so you can see the recursion process and produce self-similar figures.

 * `shrinkFactor`: a real number that determines the rate of the next level of boxes. For example, if `sideLength` is `100`, and `shrinkFactor` is `0.3`, the length of the sides of the largest box will be `100` units, and the length of the sides of the smallest box will be `100*.3=30` units. Four copies of that smaller box are placed within the previous box, **one box in each corner**.
133 132
 * `smallestLength`: is an integer that determines the length of the sides of the smallest box that will be drawn. For example, in Figure 6, `boxes(400,0.4,200)` only draws the box with sides of length `400`, since the size that will follow will be `400 * 0.4 = 160`, which is smaller than `200`. On the other hand, `boxes(400, 0.4, 75)` draws the box of size `400` and the boxes with size `160`, but not the following ones in size, since they would be of size `160 * 0.4 = 64`, which is less than `75`.
