Day 19 of Advent of Compiler Optimisations!

Recursive functions need to call themselves over and over — that must mean unbounded stack growth, right? Wrong! When a function ends by calling another function (even itself), the compiler can replace the call with a simple jump. Recursion becomes iteration, no stack overhead at all. How does this transformation work?
