A StackOverflowError exception might indicate that infinite recursion has occurred, in which case a termination case needs to be added to the function. It also might indicate that the recursive algorithm has a proper terminating condition but has exhausted the stack anyway. In this case, try to express the algorithm iteratively instead.
