Sometimes a bug in such a function will cause it to run indefinitely,
and/or to overflow the stack. I don't see such a bug in this function.

The exit() did not work.
Would you like to elaborate? exit() is supposed to take an int
parameter, but the author apparently didn't notice that. So perhaps you
got an exception of some sort. Change it to exit() or exit(0) and it
might solve the problem, depending on what the problem was.
I replaced it with return = 0, and that does work.
No it doesn't. return = 0 is a syntax error in both Python 2.x and 3.x
But if you changed it to a valid return statement, then that's why it
doesn't stop on the first solution.
