NAME
       fpclass,	 isnand, isnanf	 - Related miscellaneous IEEE arithmetic func‐
       tions.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ieeefp.h>

       fpclass_t    fpclass   (double x); int	       isnand	  (double  x);
       int	    isnanf    (float x);

LIBRARY
       SVR4 Library (libsvr4)

DESCRIPTION
       The  fpclass()  function determines the class of an IEEE floating-point
       value.  This returns one of the constants in the file  <fpclass.h>  and
       never  cause  an	 exception, even for signaling NaNs.  The constants in
       <fp_class.h> refer to the following classes of values:

       ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
       Constant		 Class
       ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
       FP_SNAN		 Signaling NaN (Not-a-Number)
       FP_QNAN		 Quiet NaN (Not-a-Number)
       FP_POS_INF	 +infinity
       FP_NEG_INF	 −infinity
       FP_POS_NORM	 Positive normalized
       FP_NEG_NORM	 Negative normalized
       FP_POS_DENORM	 Positive denormalized
       FP_NEG_DENORM	 Negative denormalized
       FP_POS_ZERO	 +0.0 (positive zero)
       FP_NEG_ZERO	 −0.0 (negative zero)
       ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────

       The isnand(), and isnanf() functions return the value 1 (True) if x  is
       NaN  (the  IEEE floating point reserved not-a-number value); otherwise,
       it returns the value 0 (False).

       These routines need to be compiled with the -ieee flag.

       isnanf() function has a macro definition in the ieeefp.h	 header	 file.
       This definition comes into play when the _STDC_ macro is undefined.
