Thanks. I've noticed that the parameter of the subtraction functions
should be named 'underflow', no?

Integer math cannot underflow, unless you define division to be
equivalent to division over reals.

overflow => higher/lower than max/min

underflow => wrongly rounded to zero  (smaller than epsilon)

Underflow can lead to unexpected division by zero errors in float
expressions.

Thanks. It looks like I've been making stuff up on this page: :(
