Not able to catch StackoverflowException

The below code attempts to dividebyzero causing DivideByZeroException and it is caught in the catch block static void main() { try { console.write(5/0); } catch (Exception ex) { console.write("abc"); } Nw the code below calls the main() method recursively causing StackOverflowException,but it is not caught in the catch block static void main() { try { main(); } catch (Exception ex) { console.write("abc"); } } output is supposed to be "abc",but it throws the exception. Cn someone plz explain abt dis behavior

In order to be able to catch a exception main must be running. If the exception kills main you won't be able to catch the exception.

Cus you do the recursive without bool or throwed exception handle at all 😑
