Hello. This so far is a brief presentation on Ni(I will post smth more detailed somewhere in the future).

1)recursivity: It's used in programming in C++ alghoritms (or any language, for example C+, Pascal...) in highschool. Its eassier to understand by showing alghoritms as examples and there are many on the internet, for example: the one which is about Fibbonaci numbers. 2)simbolism: It's used in Paulo Coelho writing, for example, "The alchemist", in the paragraph: "...So it all units into one" Its a long one, its mystical, (its about the beauty of Ni of condensing every concept into one ) ***check out the part when Santiago talks to the voice from the sky, its right before the last chapter. 3)Conspiracy theories, also known in hard times as apocaliptic vissions: Its used in the book ,,American Psycho" by Bret Easton Ellis when the unseelie, ENTJ protagonist imagines an apocaliptic view on the city, due to his disorders 4)As a Pi function(perception as Si) its concerned with having a panoramic view on things.(I dont really know how to articulate it, but since its an introverted perception function, people who have it strong, have an air of an old, wise man/woman.Even Pe doms can have strong tho thats very rare)Despite Si, Ni find meaning in different aspects.You can call it abstract, I guess, but a good observation on it, its that they may "just know" the cause of an event without being fully aware how off all steps that were done in kind of a subconcious process.Imagine an alghoritm which calculates the sum of all digits of an number, and, with a single blink on the instruction, you have already found the effect of it.(no need to give examples, like random numbers in order to be all sure) **Te users are better at offering definitions, because they're way of being precise is more accsible on a large scale, so...I would love to hear their thoughts on this topic 👍🌟** As a Ti user I need more time to reflect on things, to internalize them in order to master them.Te users, on the other hand, are better at mastering different proffesions which are not related to eachother, they are like: "I can do this, then that and that in the same day and feel no need to reflect on my capacities before taking initiative, since, yes, Im good at taking decisions"

I found it interesting that you used recursion to describe Ni, I see it as more of a convoluted neural network because it takes information from a variety of nodes and gives out one output. Which is how I’d describe Ni - it uses a graph-like connection between various seemingly unrelated nodes (pieces of information), seeing patterns between them and using them to identify a trend and come up with ideas for the future.

Recursion is like going back and forth and so on. Thats why I associate it with that part from "the alchemist" book. A mystical definition of it its an entity who has a wide, panoramic view on the world, who oscilates constantly from the past, present and the future in order to combine the patterns from those times, and so to feel a sense of unity.

OH I see. I was going with recursion in the computer science context, and since you mentioned C++ I was going with that. I agree with the definition you shared, thought I might not have thought of it myself.

And I thought I was crazy

I actually wonder how many people typed themselves right on this app, you know.
