Okay, here it is not working a different way, copied exactly, but it
looks like I do have a return statement, and that it should be
returning 11, not None. I must be missing something in my
understanding:

def addone(num):
    if num > 10:
        return num
    num = addone(num + 1)

print(addone(1))

result:
>>>
None
>>>
