Christopher) Newsgroups: comp.lang.c Subject: Sun FPU question Message-ID: <10660@pasteur.Berkeley.EDU> Date: 3 Mar 89 22:58:15 GMT Sender: news@pasteur.Berkeley.EDU Lines: 6 It seems that on some Suns, the FPU by default doesn't signal divide-by-zero errors, but makes the result Inf or NaN. Is there a way to make it give a floating point error? Does gcc have a flag for this? How about the MIPS compiler, which has the same behavior? Wayne
