This is a very powerful form of Reduction
It can be thought of this way:
- If the problem can be solved directly, solve it. AKA the base case
- If the problem can be broken down into a simpler problem, do it.

There is one condition that must be satisfied: It can not go on forever. If you are never finding a base case, try another method.
