#8695: Arithmetic overflow from (minBound :: Int) `quot` (-1) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: rleslie | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Core Libraries | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Incorrect result | Unknown/Multiple at runtime | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #1042 | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): But yes, it would certainly be good to explicitly call attention to the case of {{{minBound `div` (-1)}}} somewhere, as even if the behavior is expected once you think of it, it's not at all obvious that this special case exists if you haven't encountered it before. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8695#comment:39 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
