Java Program to multiply long integers and check for overflow
To check for Long overflow, we need to check the Long.MAX_VALUE with the multiplied long result, Here, Long.MAX_VALUE is the maximum value of Long type in Java.
Let us see an example wherein long values are multiplied and if the result is more than the Long.MAX_VALUE, then an exception is thrown.
The following is an example showing how to check for Long overflow.
Example
public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { long val1 = 6999; long val2 = 67849; System.out.println("Value1: "+val1); System.out.println("Value2: "+val2); long mul = val1 * val2; if (mul > Long.MAX_VALUE) { throw new ArithmeticException("Overflow!"); } // displaying multiplication System.out.println("Multiplication Result: "+(long)mul); } }
Output
Value1: 6999 Value2: 67849 Multiplication Result: 474875151
In the above example, we have taken the following two integers.
long val1 = 6999; long val2 = 67849;
Now we will multiply.
long mul = val1 * val2;
If the result is more than the maximum value, then an exception is thrown.
If (mul > Long.MAX_VALUE) { throw new ArithmeticException("Overflow!"); }
