NAME

     isfinite -- test for finite value

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     int
     isfinite(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

     The isfinite() determines whether its argument 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.

   IEEE 754
     It is determined whether the value of x is zero, subnormal, or normal, and neither infinite nor NaN.

   VAX
     It is determined whether the value of x is true zero or finite, and neither dirty zero nor ROP.

RETURN VALUES

     The isfinite() macro returns a non-zero value if the value of x is finite.  Otherwise 0 is returned.

ERRORS

     No errors are defined.

SEE ALSO

STANDARDS

     The isfinite() macro conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').

NAME

       isfinite - test for finite value

SYNOPSIS

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

       int isfinite(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

       The  isfinite()	macro  determines whether its argument has a finite value (zero, subnormal, or normal, and not infinite or NaN). First, an
       argument represented in a format wider than its semantic type is converted to its semantic type. Then determination is based on the type of
       the argument.

RETURN VALUES

       The isfinite() macro returns a non-zero value if and only if its argument has a finite value.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.
