.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Fn isfinite
|
|
|
|
|
determines whether its argument
|
|
|
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
|
|
|
has a finite value.
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
.Ss IEEE 754
|
|
|
|
|
It is determined whether the value of
|
|
|
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
|
|
|
is zero, subnormal, or normal, and neither infinite nor NaN.
|
|
|
|
|
.Ss VAX
|
|
|
|
|
It is determined whether the value of
|
|
|
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
|
|
|
is true zero or finite, and neither dirty zero nor ROP.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Fn isfinite
|
|
|
|
|
macro returns a non-zero value if the value of
|
|
|
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
|
|
|
is finite.
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise 0 is returned.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
