Python RecursionError Example

This repository demonstrates a common error in recursive functions in Python: forgetting to handle edge cases that could lead to infinite recursion.

The bug.py file contains a factorial function that is not robust enough to handle negative input. Running this code with a negative number results in a RecursionError.

The bugSolution.py file shows the corrected version of the factorial function, handling this edge case properly.

This example highlights the importance of careful input validation and error handling when using recursion.
