Could anybody help me to understand a difference between DeleteObject() and Recycle() methods for SP.Folder?

I found this documentation, but it's not clear for me.

Answer 2

SharePoint maintains a recycle bin like a windows OS, that we can use it through our code for temporary deletion. I used Recycle() in one of our project. When we use Delete() or DeleteObject() it deletes the item directly without putting them in recycle bin but if you use Recycle() method it will send the item in recycle bin.
