Abstract
In an arithmetic processing apparatus, a dividing unit divides a second bit string into a low-order bit part having a bit width equal to a first bit width and a high-order bit part which is higher than the low-order bit part, a first arithmetic unit performs arithmetic operations for a carry to and a borrow from the high-order bit part; and a second arithmetic unit performs addition of absolute values of the low-order bit part and the first bit string. Finally, a selecting unit selects an output of the first arithmetic unit from among an arithmetic operation result with a carry, an arithmetic operation result with a borrow, and the high-order bit part itself, according to information about the high-order bit part, sign information of the first bit string and the second bit string, and an intermediate result of the addition of the absolute values by the second arithmetic unit.
