It is always possible to translate recursion to iteration in theory. The problem of writing a translator for a C program is that C is a non strict language that also has side effects in functions. Therefore it is not feasible to write such a translation program for any C program. But if you write in a restricted subset of C it becomes practical. Such translators exist for many languages that are not as messy as C and C++. So you are stuck to doing it by hand. But that is not a bad thing. Since you get to practice your algorithmic skills.
