“System.StackOverflowException”类型的未经处理的异常在 mscorlib.dll 中发生

摘要:我们经常会用到递归函数,但是如果递归深度太大时,往往导致栈溢出。而递归深度往往不太容易把握,所以比较安全一点的做法就是:用循环代替递归。文章最后的原文里面讲了如何用10步实现这个过程,相当精彩。本文翻译了这篇文章,并加了自己的一点注释和理解。

1 简介

  一般我们在进行排序(比如归并排序)或者树操作时会用到递归函数。但是如果递归深度达到一定程度以后,就会出现意想不到的结果比如堆栈溢出。虽然有很多有经验的开发者都知道了如何用循环函数或者栈加while循环来代替递归函数,以防止栈溢出,但我还是想分享一下这些方法,这或许会对初学者有很大的帮助。

2 模拟函数的目的

  如果你正在使用递归函数,并且没有控制递归调用,而栈资源又比较有限,调用层次过深的时候就可能导致栈溢出/堆冲突模拟函数的目的就是在堆中开辟区域来模拟栈的行为,这样你就能控制内存分配和流处理,从而避免栈溢出。如果能用循环函数来代替效果会更好,这是一个比较需要时间和经验来处理的事情,出于这些原因,这篇文章为初学者提供了一个简单的参考,怎样使用循环函数来替代递归函数,以防止栈溢出?

3 递归函数和模拟函数的优缺点

  递归函数:

  优点:算法比较直观。可以参考文章后面的例子

  缺点:可能导致栈溢出或者堆冲突

  你可以试试执行下面两个函数(后面的一个例子),IsEvenNumber(递归实现)IsEvenNumber(模拟实现),他们在头文件"MutualRecursion.h"中声明。你可以将传入参数设定为10000,像下面这样:

#include "MutualRecursion.h" 

bool result = IsEvenNumberLoop(10000); // 成功返回

bool result2 = IsEvenNumber(10000);     // 会发生堆栈溢出

 有些人可能会问:如果我增加栈的容量不就可以避免栈溢出吗?好吧,这只是暂时的解决问题的办法,如果调用层次越来越深,很有可能会再次发生溢出。

   模拟函数:

  优点:能避免栈溢出或者堆冲突错误,能对过程和内存进行更好的控制

  缺点:算法不是太直观,代码难以维护

 

4 用栈和循环代替递归的10个步骤

第一步

定义一个新的结构体Snapshot,用于保存递归结构中的一些数据和状态信息

Snapshot内部需要包含的变量有以下几种:

  A 一般当递归函数调用自身时,函数参数会发生变化。所以你需要包含变化的参数,引用除外比如下面的例子中,参数n应该包含在结构体中,而retVal不需要。

void SomeFunc(int n, int &retVal);

  B 阶段性变量"stage"(通常是一个用来转换到另一个处理分支的整形变量),详见第六条规则

  C 函数调用返回以后还需要继续使用的局部变量(一般在二分递归和嵌套递归中很常见)

代码:

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "First rule" example
 2 int SomeFunc(int n, int &retIdx)
 3 {
 4    ...
 5    if(n>0)
 6    {
 7       int test = SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx);
 8       test--;
 9       ...
10       return test;
11    }
12    ...
13    return 0;
14 }
15 
16 
17 // Conversion to Iterative Function
18 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
19 {
20     // (First rule)
21     struct SnapShotStruct {
22        int n;        // - parameter input
23        int test;     // - local variable that will be used 
24                      //     after returning from the function call
25                      // - retIdx can be ignored since it is a reference.
26        int stage;    // - Since there is process needed to be done 
27                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
28     };
29     ...
30 }
复制代码

 第二

在函数的开头创建一个局部变量,这个值扮演了递归函数的返回函数角色。它相当于为每次递归调用保存一个临时值,因为C++函数只能有一种返回类型,如果递归函数的返回类型是void,你可以忽略这个局部变量。如果有缺省的返回值,就应该用缺省值初始化这个局部变量。

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "Second rule" example
 2 int SomeFunc(int n, int &retIdx)
 3 {
 4    ...
 5    if(n>0)
 6    {
 7       int test = SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx);
 8       test--;
 9       ...
10       return test;
11    }
12    ...
13    return 0;
14 }
15 
16 // Conversion to Iterative Function
17 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
18 {
19      // (First rule)
20     struct SnapShotStruct {
21        int n;        // - parameter input
22        int test;     // - local variable that will be used 
23                      //     after returning from the function call
24                      // - retIdx can be ignored since it is a reference.
25        int stage;    // - Since there is process needed to be done 
26                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
27     };
28 
29     // (Second rule)
30     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
31 
32     ...
33     // (Second rule)
34     return retVal;
35 }
复制代码

 第三

创建一个栈用于保存“Snapshot”结构体类型变量

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "Third rule" example
 2 
 3 // Conversion to Iterative Function
 4 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
 5 {
 6      // (First rule)
 7     struct SnapShotStruct {
 8        int n;        // - parameter input
 9        int test;     // - local variable that will be used 
10                      //     after returning from the function call
11                      // - retIdx can be ignored since it is a reference.
12        int stage;    // - Since there is process needed to be done 
13                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
14     };
15 
16     // (Second rule)
17     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
18 
19     // (Third rule)
20     stack snapshotStack;
21     ...
22     // (Second rule)
23     return retVal;
24 }
复制代码

 第四

创建一个新的”Snapshot”实例,然后将其中的参数等初始化,并将“Snapshot”实例压入栈

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "Fourth rule" example
 2 
 3 // Conversion to Iterative Function
 4 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
 5 {
 6      // (First rule)
 7     struct SnapShotStruct {
 8        int n;        // - parameter input
 9        int test;     // - local variable that will be used 
10                      //     after returning from the function call
11                      // - retIdx can be ignored since it is a reference.
12        int stage;    // - Since there is process needed to be done 
13                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
14     };
15 
16     // (Second rule)
17     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
18 
19     // (Third rule)
20     stack snapshotStack;
21 
22     // (Fourth rule)
23     SnapShotStruct currentSnapshot;
24     currentSnapshot.n= n;          // set the value as parameter value
25     currentSnapshot.test=0;        // set the value as default value
26     currentSnapshot.stage=0;       // set the value as initial stage
27 
28     snapshotStack.push(currentSnapshot);
29 
30     ...
31     // (Second rule)
32     return retVal;
33 }
复制代码

 第五

写一个while循环,使其不断执行直到栈为空。while循环的每一次迭代过程中,弹出”Snapshot“对象。

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "Fifth rule" example
 2 
 3 // Conversion to Iterative Function
 4 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
 5 {
 6      // (First rule)
 7     struct SnapShotStruct {
 8        int n;        // - parameter input
 9        int test;     // - local variable that will be used 
10                      //     after returning from the function call
11                      // - retIdx can be ignored since it is a reference.
12        int stage;    // - Since there is process needed to be done 
13                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
14     };
15     // (Second rule)
16     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
17     // (Third rule)
18     stack snapshotStack;
19     // (Fourth rule)
20     SnapShotStruct currentSnapshot;
21     currentSnapshot.n= n;          // set the value as parameter value
22     currentSnapshot.test=0;        // set the value as default value
23     currentSnapshot.stage=0;       // set the value as initial stage
24     snapshotStack.push(currentSnapshot);
25     // (Fifth rule)
26     while(!snapshotStack.empty())
27     {
28        currentSnapshot=snapshotStack.top();
29        snapshotStack.pop();
30        ...
31     }
32     // (Second rule)
33     return retVal;
34 }
复制代码

  1. 将当前阶段一分为二(针对当前只有单一递归调用的情形)。第一个阶段代表了下一次递归调用之前的情况,第二阶段代表了下一次递归调用完成并返回之后的情况(返回值已经被保存,并在此之前被累加)
  2. 如果当前阶段有两次递归调用,就必须分为3个阶段。阶段1:第一次调用返回之前,阶段2:阶段1执行的调用过程。阶段3:第二次调用返回之前。
  3. 如果当前阶段有三次递归调用,就必须至少分为4个阶段。
  4. 依次类推。

 6    {
 7       int test = SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx);
 8       test--;
 9       ...
10       return test;
11    }
12    ...
13    return 0;
14 }
15 
16 // Conversion to Iterative Function
17 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
18 {
19      // (First rule)
20     struct SnapShotStruct {
21        int n;        // - parameter input
22        int test;     // - local variable that will be used

29     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
30     // (Third rule)
31     stack snapshotStack;
32     // (Fourth rule)
33     SnapShotStruct currentSnapshot;
34     currentSnapshot.n= n;          // set the value as parameter value
35     currentSnapshot.test=0;        // set the value as default value
36     currentSnapshot.stage=0;       // set the value as initial stage
37     snapshotStack.push(currentSnapshot);
38     // (Fifth rule)
39     while(!snapshotStack.empty())
40     {
41        currentSnapshot=snapshotStack.top();
42        snapshotStack.pop();
43        // (Sixth rule)
44        switch( currentSnapshot.stage)
45        {
46        case 0:
47           ...      // before ( SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx); )
48           break; 
49        case 1: 
50           ...      // after ( SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx); )
51           break;
52        }
53     }
54     // (Second rule)
55     return retVal;
56 }

 第七

根据阶段变量stage的值切换到相应的处理流程并处理相关过程。

复制代码
 1 // Recursive Function "Seventh rule" example
 2 int SomeFunc(int n, int &retIdx)
 3 {
 4    ...
 5    if(n>0)
 6    {
 7       int test = SomeFunc(n-1, retIdx);
 8       test--;
 9       ...
10       return test;
11    }
12    ...
13    return 0;
14 }
15 
16 // Conversion to Iterative Function
17 int SomeFuncLoop(int n, int &retIdx)
18 {
19      // (First rule)
20     struct SnapShotStruct {
21        int n;        // - parameter input
22        int test;     // - local variable that will be used

26                      //     after recursive call. (Sixth rule)
27     };
28 
29     // (Second rule)
30     int retVal = 0;  // initialize with default returning value
31 
32     // (Third rule)
33     stack snapshotStack;
34 
35     // (Fourth rule)
36     SnapShotStruct currentSnapshot;

 第八

如果递归有返回值,将这个值保存下来放在临时变量里面,比如retVal当循环结束时,这个临时变量的值就是整个递归处理的结果。

复制代码

 8       test--;
 9       ...
10       return test;
11    }
12    ...
13    return 0;
14 }
15 
16 // Conversion to Iterative Function

 第九

如果递归函数有“return”关键字,你应该在while循环里面用“continue”代替。如果return了一个返回值,你应该在循环里面保存下来(步骤8),然后return大部分情况下,步骤九是可选的,但是它能帮助你避免逻辑错误。

为了模拟下一次递归函数的调用,你必须在当前循环函数里面再生成一个新的“Snapshot”结构体作为下一次调用的快照,初始化其参数以后压入栈,并“continue”。如果当前调用在执行完成后还有一些事情需要处理,那么更改它的阶段状态“stage”到相应的过程,并在new Snapshot压入之前,把本次的“Snapshot”压入。

7 结论

我的结论就是在c/c++或者Java代码中,尽量避免用递归。但是正如你看到的,递归容易理解,但是容易导致栈溢出。虽然循环版本的函数不会增加代码可读性和提升性能,但是它能有效的避免冲突或未定义行为。正如我开头所说,我的做法通常是在代码中写两份代码,一份递归,一份循环的。前者用于理解代码,后者用于实际的运行和测试用。如果你对于自己代码中使用这两种代码的利弊很清楚,你可以选择你自己的方式
