The most portable way of determining if a floating-point exceptional condition has occurred is to use the floating-point exception facilities provided by C99 in {{fenv.h}} \[[ISO/IEC 9899:1999|AA. C References#ISO/IEC 9899-1999]\]. |

Undetected floating-point exceptions errors may result in lower program efficiency, inaccurate results, or software vulnerabilities. Most processors stall for a significant duration (sometimes up to a second or even more on 32-bit desktop processors) when an operation incurs a NaN (not a number) value.
