Solved C++ pow Overflow Error Posted on 2007-08-22 C++ 1 Verified Solution 5 Comments 2,176 Views Last Modified: 2013-11-05 Hi I am wanting to use the pow function in C++ to calculate very small values. I am using the function overflow error in the following function.... double CWSCALL colony::choiceInfo( int i, int j ) /* Combines pheromone and heuristic information for edge i, j according * values of alpha and beta */ { double heur = pow(heuristic[i][j], beta ); overflow error in double pher = pow(pheromones[i][j], alpha ); return pher * (1/heur); } On attempting to inverse the value of heur, which then makes it a very small value, a runtime error occurs stating that there has been an overflow error. IS there an alternative method to calculate the result of a power with higher precision, is there simple fix? Ideally I would like to have a precision of 10 decimal places.

A double has about 15 significant decimal places so that shouldn't be the problem. But by calculating 1./heur you might get an overflow if heur is near zero. So, the question is what is heuristic[i][j] and beta when the function failed. Note, it hardly makes sense to divide by very small values. You should prevent the
