[issue32022] Python crashes with mutually recursive code

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

The RESTART line means that you ran this in IDLE and that your program crashed the separate (sub)process that was running your code.  When IDLE notices this, it starts a new subprocess.

To test whether this is an IDLE-only problem, I ran your code without IDLE.

C:\Users\Terry>python -i -m tem
>>> doFind()
R 6 12
R 12 22
R 21 32
C 10 21
C 13 22
C 16 23

and quickly got the the Windows 'Program has stopped running' box, with no Python error message.  Ditto when run on 3.7.0a2.

Since this is not an IDLE issue, I revised the title.
