Description

This lecture covers the optimization of tail calls in functional programming languages, focusing on techniques such as trampolines, extended trampolines, Baker's technique, and single-function approach. It explains how tail call elimination can prevent stack overflow and improve program efficiency by transforming recursive calls into jumps. The instructor discusses the challenges of implementing tail call optimization in different environments and provides examples in C programming language.
