INFINITY, NAN, HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, HUGE_VALL - floating-point constants

DESCRIPTION

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.
