I am running some R code that has a recursion depth of 5000 and I get the following error:
Error: evaluation nested too deeply: infinite recursion / options(expressions=)?
Error during wrapup: evaluation nested too deeply: infinite recursion / options(expressions=)?
How do I set the recursion depth in R?

The “maximum recursion depth exceeded in comparison” error is raised when you try to execute a function that exceeds Python's built in recursion limit. You can fix this error by rewriting your program to use an iterative approach or by increasing the recursion limit in Python.
The maximal number of nested calls (including the first one) is called recursion depth. In our case, it will be exactly n . The maximal recursion depth is limited by JavaScript engine. We can rely on it being 10000, some engines allow more, but 100000 is probably out of limit for the majority of them.
Save this answer. Show activity on this post. No, C++ does not have an explicit recursion depth. If the maximum stack size is exceeded (which is 1 MB by default on Windows), your C++ program will overflow your stack and execution will be terminated.
Default stack size varies between 320k and 1024k depending on the version of Java and the system used. For a 64 bits Java 8 program with minimal stack usage, the maximum number of nested method calls is about 7 000. Generally, we don't need more, excepted in very specific cases. One such case is recursive method calls.
Ah. Found it by reading the error message. This will set the recursion depth to 100000
