MPOVFL(3)

SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE MPOVFL (X)

NAME
mpovfl - Subsidiary to DQDOTA and DQDOTI

LIBRARY
SLATEC

TYPE
ALL (MPOVFL-A)

AUTHOR
(UNKNOWN)

DESCRIPTION
Called on multiple-precision overflow, i.e. when the exponent of 'mp' number X would exceed M. At present execution is terminated with an error message after calling MPMAXR(X), but it would be possible to return, possibly updating a counter and terminating execution after a preset number of overflows. Action could easily be determined by a flag in labelled common. The argument X(*) is an INTEGER array of size 30. See the comments in the routine MPBLAS for the reason for this choice.
