What is wrong with the following program, what happens when you run it? If this method would have been implemented using a loop, and would have a similar error, what would happen then if run?

public class JavaIsToJavascriptWhatCarIsToCarpet {

public static int factorial ( int n ) {

return ( n * factorial (n -1) ) ;

}

public static void main ( String args []) {

factorial (4) ;

}

}
