LIBRARY

     libm

SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     int
     isinff(float);

     int
     isnanf(float);

DESCRIPTION

     The isinff() function returns 1 if the number is "Infinity", otherwise 0.

BUGS

     Neither the VAX nor the Tahoe floating point have distinguished values
     for either infinity or not-a-number. These routines always return 0 on
     those architectures.
