in a calculation make it impossible to produce a meaningful
result.

The TotalLossOfPrecisionException type exposes the following members.
Top
| Name | Description |
---|
 | Data | Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | HelpLink | Gets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | HResult | Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | InnerException | Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | Message | Gets a message that describes the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | Source | Gets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | StackTrace | Gets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | TargetSite | Gets the method that throws the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |

| Name | Description |
---|
 | Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | GetBaseException | When overridden in a derived class, returns the Exception that is the root cause of one or more subsequent exceptions. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | GetObjectData | When overridden in a derived class, sets the SerializationInfo with information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | GetType | Gets the runtime type of the current instance. (Inherited from Exception.) |
 | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | ToString | Creates and returns a string representation of the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |

| Name | Description |
---|
 | SerializeObjectState | Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |

In some rare cases, round-off error can cause the
result of an operation to have no correct significant
digits at all. When this happens, an exception of type
TotalLossOfPrecisionException is thrown.
Round-off errors are the result of the finite
precision of floating-point numbers. Only a few numbers
can be represented exactly. The main contributing factor
to total loss of precision is when two numbers of
approximately equal size are subtracted.
