Abstract

An exception summary is provided for an invalid value detected during instruction execution. An indication that a value determined to be invalid was included in input data to a computation of one or more computations or in output data resulting from the one or more computations is obtained. The value is determined to be invalid due to one exception of a plurality of exceptions. Based on obtaining the indication that the value is determined to be invalid, a summary indicator is set. The summary indicator represents the plurality of exceptions collectively.
