    SICP treats recursion and the language-as-framework idea as central to computation and uses mathematical induction in its proofs, but it does not itself state that recursion is the natural frame for computational and inductive thinking.

    “e language also serves as a framework within which we organize our ideas about processes.”

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
