std::underflow_error

Defined in header <stdexcept>
class underflow_error;

Defines a type of object to be thrown as exception. It may be used to report arithmetic underflow errors (that is, situations where the result of a computation is a subnormal floating-point value)

The standard library components do not throw this exception (mathematical functions report underflow errors as specified in math_errhandling). Third-party libraries, however, use this. For example, boost.math throws std::underflow_error if boost::math::policies::throw_on_error is enabled (the default setting).
