Overflow

Overflow[] represents a number too large to represent explicitly on your computer system.

Examples

Cause an overflow in machine arithmetic:

10.^1000
(* Overflow[] *)

Check for overflow:

MatchQ[Overflow[], Overflow[]]
(* True *)

Handle overflow in computations:

Quiet[Check[10.^500, "Overflow detected"]]
