ISINF(3)                   BSD Programmer's Manual                    ISINF(3)

NAME

     isinf - test for infinity

LIBRARY

     libc

SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     int
     isinf(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

     The isinf() macro determines whether its argument x is an infinity (posi-
     tive or negative). An argument represented in a format wider than its se-
     mantic type is converted to its semantic type first. The determination is
     then based on the type of the argument.

IEEE 754

     It is determined whether the value of x is an infinity.

VAX

     Infinities are not supported.

RETURN VALUES

     The isinf() macro returns a non-zero value if the value of x is an infin-
     ity. Otherwise 0 is returned.
