[issue44379] Pickling recursion error, did not import pickle

[Terry J. Reedy]

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

The 'while pickling' part of the message is specific to running in IDLE, as Serhiy explained, but the recursion error itself is due to writing a program with infinite recursion.  The program switches the last two items back and forth indefinitely.  When run directly in Python, it gives the same error, with a different 'while' part.

Violet, this tracker is for patching Python docs and the CPython interpreter.  Please ask questions about program behavior elsewhere, such as python-list.
