StackOverflowException
Noun · Development
Definitions
The runtime error thrown when the call stack exceeds its limit, almost always caused by infinite recursion. The error that gave the website its name and gives new programmers their first 'aha' moment about recursion limits.
In plain English: The error you get when a program calls itself over and over in an endless loop until it runs out of memory to keep track of all the calls. Named after the concept, not the website.
