This code demonstrates a stack overflow error that can occur in recursive functions if the base case is not reached within a reasonable number of recursive calls.

The bug.js file contains the buggy code. The bugSolution.js file provides a corrected version with a proper base case to handle all scenarios, avoiding stack overflow. This example serves as a clear ...
