During the calculation, any operations are carried out on integers internally, such that effectively each division is a [[wp:Rounding#Rounding_to_integer|truncated integer division]] (rounding towards zero, cutting off any decimals), and any decimals are cut off after each multiplication operation. If the calculation yields <code>0</code>, the move will deal 1 HP damage instead; however, in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|V}}, different behavior may occur due to apparent oversights: | During the calculation, any operations are carried out on integers internally, such that effectively each division is a [[wp:Rounding#Rounding_to_integer|truncated integer division]] (rounding towards zero, cutting off any decimals), and any decimals are cut off after each multiplication operation.
