 ## Walking the AST with recursive functions {#ast-funs}
 
-It's easy to modify sa single call with `substitute()` or `pryr::modify_call()`. For more complicated tasks we need to work directly with the AST. The base `codetools` package provides some useful motivating examples of how we can do this: \index{recursion!over ASTs}
