     This may/may not be the correct place to ask this question. I have a
     program written in C on my Digital UNIX 3.2C machine. I am getting an
     error when I a am reading in a number. It causes the program to
     crash. I have narrowed it down to the point that I get an message
     back saying that the number is floating point negative denormalized.
     Can someone tell me what is meant by denormalized - how to check for
     it - and/or how to normalize. I know that this is more of a
     programming questions, but the problem does not occur when I am using
     a PC or an SGI.
     
     
     
     Thanks
