NAME
isnan - test for not-a-number
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
int
isnan(real-floating x);
DESCRIPTION
The isnan() macro determines whether its argument x is not-a-number
("NaN"). An argument represented in a format wider than its semantic
type is converted to its semantic type first. The determination is then
based on the type of the argument.
IEEE 754
It is determined whether the value of x is a NaN.
VAX
NaNs are not supported.
RETURN VALUES
The isnan() macro returns a non-zero value if the value of x is a NaN.
Otherwise 0 is returned.
