ISNAN(3M) Mathematical Library Functions ISNAN(3M)

NAME


isnan - test for NaN

SYNOPSIS


cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
#include <math.h>

int isnan(double x);


c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
#include <math.h>

int isnan(real--floating x);


DESCRIPTION


In C90 mode, the isnan() function tests whether x is NaN.


In C99 mode, the isnan() macro determines whether its argument value
is NaN. First, an argument represented in a format wider than its
semantic type is converted to its semantic type. The determination is
then based on the type of the argument.

RETURN VALUES


Both the isnan() function and macro return non-zero if and only if x
is NaN.

ERRORS


No errors are defined.

WARNINGS


In C99 mode, the practice of explicitly supplying a prototype for
isnan() after the line

#include <math.h>


is obsolete and will no longer work.
