What explains the limitation of stack call size in a programming environment?

The size of the stack call limit is constrained by the limited amount of memory allocated for the stack during program execution. The stack is used to store local variables, return addresses, and function parameters.

Main reasons for this limitation:

• Fixed stack size set at program startup or by default by the operating system.
• To prevent memory overflow and conflicts with other memory segments.

If the stack overflows (stack overflow), the program may crash. Therefore, it is important to control recursion depth and the size of local data.
