non-recursive
This term is primarily used in computer science and mathematics to describe algorithms that use iterative loops rather than self-referential function calls. It carries a connotation of stability and predictability, as it avoids the risk of stack overflow errors associated with deep recursion.
In a technical context, choosing a non-recursive implementation often suggests a priority on memory efficiency and execution speed. It describes a linear or looping progression of logic that reaches a conclusion without needing to dive back into its own starting point.
Meanings
Examples

I think a non-recursive loop would be more efficient for this specific dataset.
The algorithm is non-recursive and relies on a simple while loop.
We need to implement a non-recursive traversal of the binary tree.
Is this function non-recursive or does it call itself?
The system uses a non-recursive parser to handle the input stream.
A non-recursive solution often requires an explicit stack to manage state.
The logic is strictly non-recursive to ensure predictable memory usage.
