NAME

       finite, finitef, finitel, isinf, isinff, isinfl, isnan, isnanf, isnanl - BSD floating-point classification functions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

       int finite(double x);
       int finitef(float x);
       int finitel(long double x);

       int isinf(double x);
       int isinff(float x);
       int isinfl(long double x);

       int isnan(double x);
       int isnanf(float x);
       int isnanl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

       The  finite(),  finitef(),  and finitel() functions return a nonzero value if x is neither infinite nor a "not-a-number" (NaN) value, and 0
       otherwise.

       The isnan(), isnanf(), and isnanl() functions return a nonzero value if x is a NaN value, and 0 otherwise.

       The isinf(), isinff(), and isinfl() functions return 1 if x is positive infinity, -1 if x is negative infinity, and 0 otherwise.

ATTRIBUTES

       For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

       |Interface			| Attribute	| Value   |
       +--------------------------------+---------------+---------+

NOTES

       Note that these functions are obsolete.	C99 defines macros isfinite(), isinf(), and isnan() (for all types) replacing them.  Further  note
       that the C99 isinf() has weaker guarantees on the return value.	See fpclassify(3).
