integer overflow vs float overflow

[Milind Gupta <milind.gupta@...>]

Hi,

    I see that C wraps integer overflow but float reaches 1.#INF00. C must be doing what the processor implements. Lua 5.3 also wraps integer overflow for float overflow it gives inf. So does Lua check specifically when float overflow happens and substitute inf in place of 1.#INF00?

    If it does is it possible to have integer arithmetic also saturating to inf rather than wrapping to minimum?

Thanks,
