Recursion on an 8 is harder to do. The DECmate II/III use the 6120
and implement the PDP-8a hardware stack for data or addresses but,
it's still a bit more work.
Than again programming in native assembly is fun on that machine.

on an 8 but never C.
The lack of local variables makes C very dificult.
