HOWTO solve any problem recursively, PL/SQL edition…

PROCEDURE solve (my_problem IN varchar2) IS
BEGIN
  my_idea := have_great_idea (my_problem) ;
  my_code := start_coding (my_idea) ;
  IF i_hit_complications (my_idea)
  THEN 
    new_problem := the_complications (my_idea);
    solve (new_problem);
  ELSE
    NULL; --we will never get here
  END IF;
END solve;

This abuse of recursion was inspired by @ThePracticalDev !
