# CarefulMath

Derived from OpenZeppelin's SafeMath library\
<https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-solidity/blob/master/contracts/math/SafeMath.sol>

## MathError

*Possible error codes that we can return*

```solidity
enum MathError {
  NO_ERROR,
  DIVISION_BY_ZERO,
  INTEGER_OVERFLOW,
  INTEGER_UNDERFLOW
}
```

## mulUInt

```solidity
function mulUInt(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (enum CarefulMath.MathError, uint256)
```

*Multiplies two numbers, returns an error on overflow.*

## divUInt

```solidity
function divUInt(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (enum CarefulMath.MathError, uint256)
```

*Integer division of two numbers, truncating the quotient.*

## subUInt

```solidity
function subUInt(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (enum CarefulMath.MathError, uint256)
```

*Subtracts two numbers, returns an error on overflow (i.e. if subtrahend is greater than minuend).*

## addUInt

```solidity
function addUInt(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (enum CarefulMath.MathError, uint256)
```

*Adds two numbers, returns an error on overflow.*

## addThenSubUInt

```solidity
function addThenSubUInt(uint256 a, uint256 b, uint256 c) internal pure returns (enum CarefulMath.MathError, uint256)
```

*add a and b and then subtract c*

## min

```solidity
function min(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (uint256)
```

*min and max functions*

## max

```solidity
function max(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (uint256)
```

## MAXUINT

```solidity
uint256 MAXUINT
```

## MAXUINT96

```solidity
uint256 MAXUINT96
```

## MAXUINT24

```solidity
uint256 MAXUINT24
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.mangrove.exchange/dev/strat-lib/technical-references/api-preferences/strats/src/strategies/vendor/compound/carefulmath.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
