Math::...verflow(3pm)
πΈ hey bestie, welcome to Math::...verflow(3pm) πΈ
okay so real quick β this lil page is straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's the manual for a module called Math::Int128::die_on_overflow. it's short, it's sweet, it's giving "one job, done perfectly". let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
Math::Int128::die_on_overflow β catch overflows when using Math::Int128 π«Ά
like. that's it. that's the whole pitch. it sits there and the second your numbers get too big, it yells instead of quietly handing you a wrong answer. iconique behavior frankly.
π SYNOPSIS π
use Math::Int128 qw(uint128);
use Math::Int128::die_on_overflow;
my $number = uint128(2**64);
say($number * $number); # overflow error!
see what happened there?? π you pulled in Math::Int128 with uint128, then you loaded Math::Int128::die_on_overflow β and the moment you did $number * $number on something built from uint128(2**64), boom π₯ overflow error, no cap, it died on you. that's the whole vibe. the module is the vibes check for your integers.
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
- Math::Int128 β the main character, the one doing the actual 128-bit math. this module just rides shotgun and screams when things go sideways π

fr fr, that's the entire page. no hidden options, no secret flags, no surprises. it's a tiny module with main character energy. go forth and let your overflows be loud π£οΈβ¨
