The Algorithmic Croissant

A pastry so intricate, its flaky layers are actually just a manifestation of its underlying recursive function calls.

Ingredients:

To make the Algorithmic Croissant, you must first initialize the pastry with a loop that iterates 7 times, adding 1 to the counter each time.

Once the loop completes, you must recursively call the function to create the layers, each time doubling the number of iterations and halving the size of the pastry.

This process continues until the pastry is reduced to a single layer, at which point you must add a dash of creativity and a pinch of magic.

And so, the Algorithmic Croissant is born, a flaky, fractal pastry that is both a mathematical marvel and a culinary abomination.
