not using enough bits or digits to store maximum values

subject fact

not using enough bits or digits to store maximum values has testing strategy test using very large numbers to ensure the system has a wide enough margin of error 2001-08-30 14:56:43.0
is a subtopic of 10.4 - Defects in Numerical Algorithms
is a kind of defect in a numerical algorithm

defect has example the absence of code to handle an exception 2001-08-30 14:55:12.0

problem has solution which will normally entail developing software, although you may decide that it is better to purchase software or to develop a non-software solution 2001-08-30 14:57:03.0
should be written as a simple problem statement in one or two sentences
