| Issue |
We are using QNX4, and Watcom 10.6. An application displayed the following error message
Overflow range error in pow
What does this mean?
|
| Solution |
pow() is a math function to raise a number to the power of another number and the error comes from the math library that contains the function definition for pow. In this case, it was likely that the input arguments generated ouput that were too large to fit in the variable provided, which generated the error. You should check the numbers you are using/generating to make sure they fit in the expected output variable of pow (double).
