[Java] How to cause a StackOverflowError

[Quackster]

Hello..

The simple java code is this

public class Test
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
	{
        Test.main(args);
    }
}

Then main() will keep calling itself, getting deeper and deeper, and when the space used to keep track of what functions you're in is filled up, you get the stack overflow error.

Good luck

You should mention it's called recursion and it doesn't have a terminating condition.
