Question
Garbage collection can be used to mitigate the effects of one form of this error which occurs when there is not enough contiguous space to satisfy a memory allocation call. A call graph can be used to debug instances of this error which arise from infinite recursion or unintended cyclic calls which consume more memory than is available. The handling of this phenomenon in C causes undefined behavior for signed integers and wrapping around for unsigned integers. This error’s integer form occurs when a value cannot be represented using the given number of bits. For 10 points, name this error whose “stack” form shares a name with a popular online knowledge base. ■END■
