I've rarely seen one like that -- the only one I can think of is a
game search function, where you want to limit the depth so it doesn't
sit there thinking forever. Most recursive algorithms continue
recursing until their work is done.
Now that you put it this way, the IntroSort code in my SortLibrary uses
bounded recursion.
