as Underflow , whether for expressions or constants , is only recommended an exception , but , in any case , zero must be supplied when the magnitude of the result is below the minimum representable by the implementation .

Finally , we must recognize that even if the value of a function is computable to high accuracy ( as with cos ( 1E - 22 ) ) , the graininess of the machine will again limit how accurately the result itself can be represented .

The result is that the conditions for an input exception may depend on implementation - defined features , and thus a given input - reply may cause an exception for one processor and yet not another . Note that the same situation ...
