--- Comment #11 from Eike Rathke <[email protected]> --- #3 is not possible as there is no non-NaN-payload mode implemented, and implementing it would require not only different error handling but also different transport of errors between intermediary results up to final results of a formula expression; while technically possible I wouldn't call it feasible or viable, as the effort would be huge, add even more runtime penalty, and possibly overlooking things adds uncertainty. #2 might work to some degree, someone would have to actually try on such an inferior architecture what happens. My (hopeful) guess is that _some_ NaN is transported so there will be _some_ error (e.g. indicating numeric failure) but any detail about what specific error will be lost. But that also means that code reacting on specific error information will fail, so not everything will work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
