I have just started using the Student version of Mathematica 5.2 and set up the following recursive 'Super' exponent function notebook:
In[1]:=
$RecursionLimit = 50000
Out[1]=
50000
In[2]:=
superexp[{levels_,
base_}] := base^superexp[{levels-1, base}];superexp[{1, base_}] := base
In[3]:=
superexp[{16, 1.1}]
Out[3]=
1.111782
In[4]:=
superexp[{36, 1.3}]
Out[4]=
1.470989
In[5]:=
superexp[{622, 1.444}]
Out[5]=
2.5874703
In[6]:=
superexp[{46598, 1.4446678}]
As you can see all works well until I execute the last function call. The kernel then exits without solving the function. Could someone please explain why this occurs?
