 ===== Safety =====
-Note that the [[https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/sys.html#sys.setrecursionlimit|official Python3 documentation]] describes an implicit danger in this function, with little guidance as to safe use other than a "platform-dependent" limit.((I.e., It is unlikely that this is a good idea in many practical settings outside of a programming contest setting.)) Exceeding this limit will lead to a crash.
