TFPUExceptionMask defines a set of TFPUException values.
TFPUExceptionMask = set of TFPUException;
TFPUException TFPUExceptionMask;
Math
The FPU (Floating Point Unit) handles floating point calculations. You can prevent exceptions from occuring by using SetExceptionMask to mask some or all of them.
When an exception is masked, the FPU returns its best attempt at a value – often NaN, Infinity, or NegInfinity. The value depends on the operation and the current rounding mode (see GetRoundMode and SetRoundMode).
TFPUExceptionMask can have none, one, some or all of the following TFPUException values set :
