.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions provide information about the specified floating point number
|
|
\fIx\fP. fpclassify returns one of the values FP_INFINITE, FP_NAN, FP_NORMAL,
|
|
FP_SUBNORMAL and FP_ZERO depending on the type of number provided. The isinf,
|
|
isinf, isnan and isnormal test for specific number classes, returning a
|
|
non-zero value is and only if the specified number belongs to the class
|
|
specified by the function name. The signbit function returns a non-zero value
|
|
if and only if the sign bit is set, which for non-NaN values (including zero)
|
|
means that the number is negative.
