Subject: Recursive Logic - Examples and Resources?

Hey all,

Recently, one of my projects has run into a situation where I'm 95% sure
I need to use recursion.  Its a situation like the following:

Out of 20 numbers, I need a set of 10.  Each user has two numbers, each
of which may or may not be part of the set.  I need to get 5 users to
complete the set of 10 desired numbers.

So, if the set is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, and User1 has (9, 17), while
User2 has (3, 7), User2 could be part of the set, while User1 could not.

Now, I know enough to figure out that I need some recursion here, but I
have no idea how to implement it.  Could anyone point me to some guides
or examples that could be of help to me?  Thanks very much in advance :)
