NAME

       fpclassify - classify real floating type

SYNOPSIS

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

       int fpclassify(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

       The fpclassify() macro classifies its argument value as NaN, infinite, normal, subnormal, or zero. First, an argument represented in a for-
       mat wider than its semantic type is converted to its semantic type. Then classification is based on the type of the argument.

RETURN VALUES

       The fpclassify() macro returns the value of the number classification macro appropriate to the value of its argument.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.
