ISINF(3) Library Functions Manual ISINF(3)

NAME

isinftest 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 (positive 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.

IEEE 754

It is determined whether the value of x is an infinity.

VAX

Infinities are not supported.

RETURN VALUES

The isinf() macro returns a non-zero value if the value of x is an infinity. Otherwise 0 is returned.
