Cycle Nested Functions Technical Word

I´m writing my thesis and I don´t know the technical word to define functions that create a cycle in a Call Graph. If the arrow is a call instruction, imagine this example: A -> B -> C -> A.

I´m treating them differently in my tainted analysis and I'm currently calling them "Cycle Nested Functions". Is any technical word to define them?

Solution

  • They are mutually recursive functions.
