MySQL Error 3051: Numeric Underflow Encountered
Description
Error 3051, an 'Underflow error', indicates that a numeric operation has produced a result that is too small to be represented by the specified data type. This typically occurs during complex calculations or data type conversions when the value approaches or exceeds the minimum representable limit.
Error Message
Underflow error: %s in function %s.
Known Causes
3 known causesCalculation Result Too Small
A mathematical operation, such as division or exponentiation, produced a numeric result that is smaller than the minimum value allowed by the assigned data type.
Invalid Data Type Conversion
Attempting to convert a very small numeric value from one data type to another where the target type cannot accurately represent its magnitude, leading to a loss of precision.
Floating-Point Precision Issues
Operations involving floating-point numbers (e.g., FLOAT, DOUBLE) can sometimes generate results extremely close to zero, which might be interpreted as an underflow if not handled carefully.
