Overflow Error Quiz

What is an overflow error?

• A type of error that occurs when a program tries to store a value that is too large for the data type it is using

• A type of error that occurs when a program tries to divide a number by zero

• A type of error that occurs when a program tries to access a memory location that is out of bounds
