Abstract
An arithmetic processing device has, when any or both of a first operand and a second operand included in a multiply-add operation instruction is or are zero, an exponent setting circuit sets an exponent of the first operand to a first set value, and sets an exponent of the second operand to a second set value. An exponent calculation circuit calculates an exponent obtained by a multiply-add operation, based on the exponents of the first and second operands outputted by the exponent setting circuit and an exponent of a third operand included in the multiply-add operation instruction. The sum of the first set value and the second set value is set so that a bit position of the third operand is located on a higher-order bit side than the most significant bit of the sum of the first operand and the second operand.
