Survive from Stack Overflow in Kotlin

Revision en2, by liouzhou_101, 2020-05-19 19:32:21

DFS is commonly used in those problems about trees and graphs. However, an unpopular guy — STACK OVERFLOW — often appears.

The issue about the size of the stack is discussed here. However, only a few languages have been discussed there. For example, in CodeForces platform, the stack size of C/C++ is 256MB, while, that of JAVA is poorly 64MB. MikeMirzayanov said he would change it but it seems he forgot it (or at least the stack overflow issue is not resolved for every language). Fortunately, at least there is a solution for JAVA.

The Kotlin Heroes Episode will be held in a few days. While I am using Kotlin, the STACK OVERFLOW issue comes out. It seems there is no blog that talks about this issue at least at this moment. I have struggled for it for days and fortunately resolve it finally. I'd like to share the solution with you, and hope it will help for you.

I first noticed that Kotlin could use JAVA libraries in Petr's code in Kotlin Heroes Episode 1. I combine Kotlin code with the previous solution to stack size for JAVA, and then find that it really works. Since there is still a little difference between Kotlin and JAVA, it is necessary to post the Kotlin code below.
