Yes, often using iterative solutions (loops) instead of recursion is a good way to avoid `StackOverflowError`s. Iterative solutions don't rely on the call stack for control flow, so they don't have the same stack size limitations. However, iterative solutions might be less readable or more complex for certain problems, so it's important to consider both factors when choosing an approach.
