Class LossOfPrecisionException

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

public class LossOfPrecisionException extends ApfloatRuntimeException
Exception indicating a result that would have no significant digits.

An example would be ApfloatMath.sin(new Apfloat(1e100)). Rather than returning an arbitrary result, this exception should be thrown.

Note that a subtraction where a complete loss of digits occurs does not throw this exception but instead just returns zero.
