ISINF(3)                NetBSD Library Functions Manual               ISINF(3)


NAME
isinf -- test for infinity
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> int isinf(real-floating x);
DESCRIPTION
The isinf() macro determines whether its argument x is an infinity (posi- tive or negative). 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.
RETURN VALUES
The isinf() macro returns a non-zero value if the value of x is an infin- ity. Otherwise 0 is returned.

STANDARDS
The isinf() macro conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
CAVEATS
On VAX the isinf() function always returns 0, as the architecture doesn't have a representation for infinity. NetBSD 10.99 September 27, 2017 NetBSD 10.99
