[Solved] Why does this method cause infinite recursion? [closed]

by


func is always calling itself. There is no stopping condition. Each call creates a new stack frame, until the call stack is full and StackOverflowError is thrown.

Recursive methods should always have a stopping condition. For example – n < 0 :

public static int func(int n){
    int result;
    if (n >= 0)
        result = func(n - 1);
    else
        result = 0;
    return result;
}
