Explanation

Floating-point overflow or underflow, as indicated in the message, occurred during computation of a mathematical function. errno is set to ERANGE, and appropriate flags are set in the floating-point environment. The function returns an appropriate value, determined by the specific error which occurred and the current rounding mode. For the default rounding mode, plus or minus infinity is returned for overflow, and a denormalized result or 0 is returned for underflow.

Action

If possible, correct the program or the data. The message can be suppressed using the _matherb function, as described in the SAS/C Library Reference, Volume 1.
