DESCRIPTION
The normal relational operations (like <, "less than") fail if one of the operands is NaN. This will cause an exception. To avoid this, C99 defines the macros listed below.
These macros are guaranteed to evaluate their arguments only once. The arguments must be of real floating-point type (note: do not pass integer values as arguments to these macros, since the arguments will not be promoted to real-floating types).
- isgreater()
- determines (x) > (y) without an exception if x or y is NaN.
- isgreaterequal()
- determines (x) >= (y) without an exception if x or y is NaN.
- isless()
- determines (x) < (y) without an exception if x or y is NaN.
- islessequal()
- determines (x) <= (y) without an exception if x or y is NaN.
- islessgreater()
- determines (x) < (y) || (x) > (y) without an exception if x or y is NaN. This macro is not equivalent to x != y because that expression is true if x or y is NaN.
- isunordered()
- determines whether its arguments are unordered, that is, whether at least one of the arguments is a NaN.
