This error essentially means that:

– Your program is running too deep into recursion, exceeding the maximum limit. Recursion is when a function calls itself in its definition. If not controlled properly, this process can go on indefinitely, causing a ‘Stack Overflow’ error.

Ways to resolve it:

– Limit your recursion: Ensure your recursive function has an appropriate base case to stop the recursion at a certain point.

– Increase the limit: Python has a default recursion limit, usually set at 1000. You can manually increase it using sys.setrecursionlimit(limit). However, this is generally discouraged as it can lead to a crash if your available memory can’t handle the increased limit.

– Refactor your code: Consider refactoring your code to use iterative methods instead of recursive ones. This is the most effective way to avoid this error, particularly when dealing with large data sets.
