bool isOdd(int num) { const oddNumbers = []; for (let i = 1; i <= 10000000; i += 2) { oddNumbers.push(i); } if (oddNumbers.includes(num) { return true; } }isOdd(-1);deleted by creator
Maybe memo just to be safe, but LGTM!
isOdd(10000001);
this incident has been reported
You should make it
oddNumbers.includes(num%10000000)…And if not, unicorns!
Boss: don’t spend any time on it, just vibe code a solution.
You: sure, I enjoy receiving a salary, what could go wrong?
Mood…
To fix this, add
if(num == 255) return true;before line 10.Peak efficiency there.
But use 2147483647 to be safe.
Will this ever return? Won’t it just overflow the stack?
Yep, this will cause a stack overflow.
A mod will appear in my office and claim my problem is a duplicate when it’s not?
Might very well be an endless loop because tail recursion can be optimized to reuse the stack frame. Depends on a lot of things of course.

Hm, stack overflow is basically a forkbomb in programming?ok, bullshit.Forkbomb kills the entire system so not really.
With the stack overflow the runtime will gracefully terminate the program.
No.
A stack overflow is a symptom, not the illness. A fork bomb is an illness.
Software coming from the mathematical point of view, assummes it has infinite resources. However, a real computer has many resources that are finite.
CPU time is finite. Memory amount is finite. There is a finite number of network ports. And so on.
A stack overflow just means: “you have run out of this resource called ‘the stack’”. The stack is a region of the memory. Each thread of each process has 1 stack, and it is not infinite in size. This program will cause a stack overflow because it is infinitely recursive, and each function call will consume a bit of the stack.
A forkbomb is not the end of a finite resource. A fork bomb is a program that uses “forking” to rapidly consume system resources. A fork bomb might cause a stack overflow. Or an out of memory issue. Slow the computer a lot. Or if the OS has a hard limit for process amount, it might reach that limit.
