MATH_ERRNO, MATH_ERREXCEPT, math_errhandling

Defined in header <math.h> 
#define MATH_ERRNO        1
+		 (since C99) 
#define MATH_ERREXCEPT    2
+		 (since C99) 
#define math_errhandling  /*implementation defined*/
+		 (since C99)

The macro constant math_errhandling expands to an expression of type int that is either equal to MATH_ERRNO, or equal to MATH_ERREXCEPT, or equal to their bitwise OR (MATH_ERRNO | MATH_ERREXCEPT).

+

The value of math_errhandling indicates the type of error handling that is performed by the floating-point operators and functions:

+ + + +
Constant Explanation
MATH_ERREXCEPT indicates that floating-point exceptions are used: at least FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and FE_OVERFLOW are defined in <fenv.h>.
MATH_ERRNO indicates that floating-point operations use the variable errno to report errors.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559), math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is required to be non-zero.

+

The following floating-point error conditions are recognized:

+ + + + + + + +
Condition Explanation errno floating-point exception Example
Domain error the argument is outside the range in which the operation is mathematically defined (the description of each function lists the required domain errors) +EDOM +FE_INVALID +acos(2)
Pole error the mathematical result of the function is exactly infinite or undefined +ERANGE +FE_DIVBYZERO +log(0.0), 1.0/0.0
Range error due to overflow the mathematical result is finite, but becomes infinite after rounding, or becomes the largest representable finite value after rounding down +ERANGE +FE_OVERFLOW +pow(DBL_MAX,2)
Range error due to underflow the result is non-zero, but becomes zero after rounding, or becomes subnormal with a loss of precision +ERANGE or unchanged (implementation-defined) +FE_UNDERFLOW or nothing (implementation-defined) +DBL_TRUE_MIN/2
Inexact result the result has to be rounded to fit in the destination type unchanged +FE_INEXACT or nothing (unspecified) +sqrt(2), 1.0/10.0

Notes

Whether FE_INEXACT is raised by the mathematical library functions is unspecified in general, but may be explicitly specified in the description of the function (e.g. rint vs nearbyint).

+

Before C99, floating-point exceptions were not specified, EDOM was required for any domain error, ERANGE was required for overflows and implementation-defined for underflows.

+

Example

#include <stdio.h>
+#include <fenv.h>
+#include <math.h>
+#include <errno.h>
+#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
+int main(void)
+{
+    printf("MATH_ERRNO is %s\n", math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO ? "set" : "not set");
+    printf("MATH_ERREXCEPT is %s\n",
+           math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT ? "set" : "not set");
+    feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
+    errno = 0;
+    printf("log(0) = %f\n", log(0));
+    if(errno == ERANGE)
+        perror("errno == ERANGE");
+    if(fetestexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO))
+        puts("FE_DIVBYZERO (pole error) reported");
+}

Possible output:

+
MATH_ERRNO is set
+MATH_ERREXCEPT is set
+log(0) = -inf
+errno = ERANGE: Numerical result out of range
+FE_DIVBYZERO (pole error) reported
