+### 5.1. Simple functions
+To create a recursive function we have to use this structure
+
+```Ocaml
+(*normal function*)
+# let f = expr -> 1) evaluate expr ; 2) create & link f to the result
+
+(*recursiv function*)
+# let rec f = expr -> 1) create f ; 2) evaluate expr ; 3) link f to the result
+```
+
+**Exmple with factorial function**
+```Ocaml
+# let rec fact = function 
+	| 0 -> 1
+	| n -> n * fact(n-1)
+
+# fact 4;;
+-: int = 24
+```

+> ⚠️ CAML have a call stack limite (it will block with stack overflow if the limit is reach)
+
+**Basic expression**
+```Ocaml
+let rec f params = 
+	if stop condition then 
+		stop expression
+	else
+		recursive expression 
+```
+
+To write a recurvise function we need two things
+1) There always is a stop case
+2) The parameters of a recursive call are different then its parent call, and go towards  the stop condition
+
+### 5.2. Down
+```Ocaml
+# let rec countdown n = 
+	if n = 0 then
+		print_int(0)
+	else
+		print_int(countdown (n-1));;
