Error Cases
Error messages appear when calculations cannot be successfully
completed.
This section documents the cases where error
messages occur:
Mathematical Errors
Overflow or underflow occurs in the calculation.
Divide by 0.
Reciprocal when x = 0.
Square root when x < 0.
Power when y = 0 and x <= 0 or y < 0 and x is not an integer.
Calendar
Calculating a date when difference is greater than allowed
reports the maximum date or the same date.
General math errors.
Markup/Discount
Calculating percent when cost = 0.
Calculating new price when percent is –100.
