An error that occurs when a calculation exceeds the maximum limit representable within a fixed number of bits. | Where the result of an operation exceeds the maximum or minimum value that can be stored. |
A status indicator in a CPU that signals when an arithmetic operation has exceeded the limits of its data type. | An error that occurs when a calculation results in a value smaller than the minimum limit representable within a fixed number of bits. |
A whole number that can only represent non-negative values, allowing for a larger positive range at the cost of negative representation. | A status indicator in a CPU that signals when an arithmetic operation has produced a result lower than the minimum value representable. |
A whole number that can represent both positive and negative values, typically using a bit for sign. |
