<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>20</FONT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Normal"> The above two fixed-fixed multiplying operators
shall not be used in a context where the expected type for the result
is itself <I>universal_fixed</I> -- the context has to identify some
other numeric type to which the result is to be converted, either explicitly
or implicitly. </DIV>
<H4 ALIGN=CENTER>Dynamic Semantics</H4>
<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>21</FONT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Normal"> The multiplication and division operators for
real types have their conventional meaning. For floating point types,
the accuracy of the result is determined by the precision of the result
type. For decimal fixed point types, the result is truncated toward zero
if the mathematical result is between two multiples of the <I>small</I>
of the specific result type (possibly determined by context); for ordinary
fixed point types, if the mathematical result is between two multiples
of the <I>small</I>, it is unspecified which of the two is the result.

<DIV Class="Normal"> <A NAME="I2578"></A><A NAME="I2579"></A><A NAME="I2580"></A>The
exception Constraint_Error is raised by integer division, <B>rem</B>,
and <B>mod</B> if the right operand is zero. Similarly, for a real type
<I>T</I> with <I>T'</I>Machine_Overflows True, division by zero raises
Constraint_Error. </DIV>
