You will notice there are two special sub-directory names [.] and [..] these are normally hidden note that every folder contains them. A single period [.] means &quot;the current default directory.&quot; Two periods [..] means &quot;the directory which contains the current default directory&quot; also known as the parent directory. They are useful for navigation however will cause problems if not removed from a directory listing.

'''''Note 2'':''' The array is passed to the function using the '''and''' operator '''&amp;'''$Array=false referred to as passing by pointer. It looks a little odd the array name is a pointer, however the array is not created until a value is assigned to it. If its not created it cannot be passed to the function for recursion. What the '''&amp;''' operator does is to create a variable to hold a pointer to the array. This will be created when the function is first called.
