| 2024-11-05 20:05:47 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | Rembane: depends on the cpu, I think |
| 2024-11-05 20:05:35 +0100 | <Rembane> | tomsmeding: But IIRC that's super slow. |
| 2024-11-05 20:05:31 +0100 | <Rembane> | tomsmeding: I think I'm more of the trapping school. |
| 2024-11-05 20:05:17 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | I guess the only other sensible alternative is trapping |
| 2024-11-05 20:05:17 +0100 | <dolio> | (And just searching for "overflow" in the document has too many hits.) |
| 2024-11-05 20:05:07 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | Rembane: unsigned integers wrapping? What alternative would you suggest :p |
| 2024-11-05 20:04:43 +0100 | <Rembane> | tomsmeding: Lovely! Fun! I can't see how that every could go wrong. :D |
| 2024-11-05 20:03:44 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | heh |
| 2024-11-05 20:03:40 +0100 | <dolio> | So if you look in the index for overflow, you won't get that page, I expect. |
| 2024-11-05 20:03:37 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | I guess also Rembane |
| 2024-11-05 20:03:25 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | c_wraith: ^ |
| 2024-11-05 20:03:20 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | I agree it's somewhat confusing terminology |
| 2024-11-05 20:02:48 +0100 | <dolio> | It's defined to be modular arithmetic. And apparently the reason I was having trouble is that C considers that to not be "overflow". |
| 2024-11-05 20:02:38 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | here (C11 draft: https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1570.pdf ) I find, in section 9.2.5 paragraph 9: "A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow, because a result that cannot be represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is reduced modulo the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be represented by the resulting type." |
| 2024-11-05 20:01:46 +0100 | <dolio> | Oh okay. Yeah. |

| 2024-11-05 20:00:55 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | dolio: I suppose you have a physical copy? With a digital one, I would search for the quoted "a computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow" |
| 2024-11-05 19:59:55 +0100 | <dolio> | I think that's probably the one I have, but they only appear to cite the entire document. |

| 2024-11-05 19:50:29 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | it refers to C11 |
| 2024-11-05 19:50:25 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | the wikipedia article has a citation, perhaps that helps? |
| 2024-11-05 19:50:14 +0100 | <dolio> | I probably don't know what term to search for. |
| 2024-11-05 19:49:55 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | dolio++ for even trying |
| 2024-11-05 19:49:25 +0100 | <dolio> | I tried to look in my copy of the standard, but it's hard to find stuff in there. |
