FINITE(3) BSD Library Functions Manual FINITE(3)NAME
finite -- returns 1 for finite x, 0 for infinite x and NaNs.
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
int
finite(double x);
DESCRIPTION
The finite() function returns 1 if -infinity < x < +infinity. It returns 0 if x is +-infinity or a NaN.
STANDARDS
The finite() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999(E).

HYPOT(3) BSD Library Functions Manual HYPOT(3)NAME
hypot, hypotf, hypotl, cabs, cabsf, cabsl -- Euclidean distance and complex absolute value functions
LIBRARY
Math Library (libm, -lm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
hypot(double x, double y);
float
hypotf(float x, float y);
long double
hypotl(long double x, long double y);
#include <complex.h>
double
cabs(double complex z);
float
cabsf(float complex z);
long double
cabsl(long double complex z);
DESCRIPTION
The hypot(), hypotf() and hypotl() functions compute the sqrt(x*x+y*y) in such a way that underflow will not happen, and overflow occurs only
if the final result deserves it. The cabs(), cabsf() and cabsl() functions compute the complex absolute value of z.
hypot(infinity, v) = hypot(v, infinity) = +infinity for all v, including NaN.
ERROR (due to Roundoff, etc.)
Below 0.97 ulps. Consequently hypot(5.0, 12.0) = 13.0 exactly; in general, hypot and cabs return an integer whenever an integer might be
expected.
NOTES
As might be expected, hypot(v, NaN) and hypot(NaN, v) are NaN for all finite v. But programmers might be surprised at first to discover that
hypot(+-infinity, NaN) = +infinity. This is intentional; it happens because hypot(infinity, v) = +infinity for all v, finite or infinite.
Hence hypot(infinity, v) is independent of v. Unlike the reserved operand fault on a VAX, the IEEE NaN is designed to disappear when it
turns out to be irrelevant, as it does in hypot(infinity, NaN).
SEE ALSO carg(3), math(3), sqrt(3)STANDARDS
The hypot(), hypotf(), hypotl(), cabs(), cabsf(), and cabsl() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
HISTORY
Both a hypot() function and a cabs() function appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.

Hi
i need to make a script to check disk space every hour.
****Note that cron is not allowed.
So i need to use either sleep or while 1 ...pls suggest which is more efficient in this scenario?
And is there any other way to do the task?
Thanks,

Hi All,
I have a requirement as below.

Production C code compiled without the dash-g option is running, and seems to be in an infinite loop. Is there a way to tell? Is there a diagnostic tool that will report what objects or what lines of code or even what functions are being executed?
Or is my best option to kill it with a dump?

Hi! I've make a script that gets a list of 200 Ip's and calls another script once per ip in a infinite loop with a pause of 10 seconds. So It calls over 200 times every 10 seconds the second script (that makes a fping). But this cause a load average of 30. I've been reading about this and I... (4 Replies)
Here is an example code that shows the issue I have:

Hi, I was debating if I should put this in the dummies or scripts section, I apologize in advance if I chose poorly.

Hello Experts,
I have created one user confirmation process that will ask for user input. I have created one func for it. The issue is if i call it as normal then it works fine but if i am calling it in another script(in while loop) . It is going in infinite loop and not asking for user input. ... (8 Replies)
