Uncaught RangeError: Maximum Call Stack Size Exceeded
Introduction:
The “Uncaught RangeError: Maximum Call Stack Size Exceeded” occurs when a function calls itself recursively without a termination condition, resulting in a call stack overflow. This error indicates infinite recursion and halts execution. We’ll look at common causes and strategies to prevent it.
Understanding "Uncaught RangeError: Maximum Call Stack Size Exceeded"
The Problem:
This error occurs when your function calls itself too many times without an exit condition, leading to infinite recursion. For instance:
function recurse() {
recurse();
}
recurse(); // Error: Maximum call stack size exceeded
In this case, the recurse() function calls itself indefinitely, eventually causing the stack to overflow.
The Solution:
To resolve this error, ensure that your recursive function has a base case that stops the recursion after a certain condition is met. Here’s the corrected version of the function:
function recurse(n) {
if (n <= 0) return; // Base case to stop recursion
console.log(n);
recurse(n – 1);
}
recurse(5); // Output: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
This function will now stop calling itself once n reaches 0, preventing the stack overflow.
