"Numeric overflow occurs in a computer program when the size of a numeric variable gets too big for its type. For example, on most computers values variables of type short cannot exceed 32,767, so if a variable of that type has the value 32,767 and is then incremented (or increased by any arithmetic operation), overflow will occur."
