Do you have experience using recursive approaches in Python to solve problems?

Yes, recursive approaches in Python are often used for solving problems that naturally break down into subproblems of the same type.

Example — calculating the factorial of a number:

def factorial(n):
    if n == 0:
        return 1
    else:
        return n * factorial(n - 1)

print(factorial(5))  # Outputs 120

Recursion is useful for traversing trees, solving divide-and-conquer problems, such as depth-first search, Fibonacci number calculation, expression parsing, etc. It is important to control the base case to avoid infinite recursion.
