INFINITY
NAN
HUGE_VAL
HUGE_VALF
HUGE_VALL
The macro INFINITY expands to a float
constant representing positive infinity.
The macro NAN expands to a float
constant representing a quiet NaN (when supported). A quiet
NaN is a NaN ("not-a-number") that does not raise exceptions when it is used in arithmetic. The opposite is a signaling
NaN. See IEC 60559:1989.
The macros HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, HUGE_VALL expand to constants of types double
, float
and long double
, respectively, that represent a large positive value, possibly positive infinity.
