If a value is too large to be stored, it can be assigned a special value indicating that overflow has occurred, and then have all subsequent operations return this flag value. NaN stands for not a number.
If the data type is too large or small, it can lead to unpredictable problems and reduce the robustness of your code.
An overflow will occur if the value of unsigned integer is greater than 230. If a value of 230 + 1 is used, the calculated size of the student array which is passed to the malloc is more than double the size of int.
When values are too large or small, they can fall outside the allowable range for their data type, which can lead to security vulnerabilities.
When a calculation involves thousands or millions of steps, the individual small errors from each step may accumulate and lead to larger overall error. A computational thinker is careful when drawing conclusions.
Sometimes computers make errors. Sometimes they have errors that the user doesn’t know about. The user usually only knows about major errors. There are many ways in which computer errors are classified. A general understanding of computer errors is beneficial.
An overflow error occurs if the data to be stored is greater than the unsigned value. This type of error only happens with older machines that are trying to run a modern operating system. You might get overflow.
A data type overflow is created by an overflow error. A data type used for storing data was not large enough to hold the data.
