A function is called directly recursive if it calls itself within its body. Indirect recursion is when there is a chain of function calls that eventually call the original function again, but it does not call itself directly. Iterative functions use loops to repeat a certain block of code instead of calling the function itself. Therefore, directly recursive is the best choice for the given definition.
