You're right, @chux - I just threw in something to make the point that checking for errors is a good thing. I've now changed it so that it sets errno appropriately (though, unlike library functions, it clears errno on success - that's an arguable choice). If zero is returned, we can still distinguish between sum_squares_to(0) and sum_squares_to(ULONG_MAX).

Make the error checking less rudimentary

Nice c <= n for detecting OF in b,c. Yet since 0 is a proper response to sum_squares_to(0), perhaps consider an alteration value or approach to signal OF?
