isinf

1 New Member
Hi!

I am using Borland c++ builder version 6.0 and when I compile a program containing isinf() (I did include math.h) I get 'call to undefined function isinf'.

Anyone knows what is wrong?

Thanks

Just a guess, but maybe you need to tell your compiler to link the math library? (I use gnu c so I would tell my compiler '-lm' but your compiler might be different)

From what I saw, there are lots of issues with different versions of C/C++ not allowing access to those functions. Haven't seen a fix, though...

Have a look at the frexp() function; it splits a floating point number in the
mantissa (aka significant) an exponent. If the mantissa is zero and the exponent
has its maximum value (from the top of my head: 2047) the value is +- infinite.
You can determine the sign by checking the sign bit of the floating point number.

Also: google is your friend.

kind regards,

Jos

After tracking down a bug in my Fortran program, I found that it assumed max(NaN,0.) = 0. This makes no sense, as the outcome of the operation is undefined and should be NaN. max(NaN,0.) = NaN After researching, it appears the first outcome is accepted behavior, and might be included in the revised IEEE 754 standard, which affects

Hi, I have a code that in some part of the program calculates 1/x for a lot of different x's. About 1 of 100 times x is equal to zero, so when I print the result I obtain inf. I wonder if there is a way to detect this "infinity" and convert it to the float zero. I mean something like for i = .... calculate 1/x_i

In my code I used NAN and isnan(x). I found they were convenient to use. I also noticed that older C standard does not support NAN and isnan(x). When I compiled my program using: gcc -Wall -c it was fine.

The GNU Autoconf manual provides a work-around for missing isinf() and isnan() functions, which exist in C99 and many, but not all, pre-C99 implementations: http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/autoconf/Function-Portability.html The given definition of isinf(x) boils down to return isnan (x - x), which will return true for NaNs. Surely this is wrong? -- Richard

I'm poking at writing data out to a SAS XPORT file (transport file). Each record must be 80 bytes long, ASCII. Integers should be "IBM- style integers" and floats should be "IBM-style doubles." Now I have some idea what that means from reading a C source file documented by the SAS institute, but before I go over the deep end trying to write my own routines, does anyone know of an already-done means of writing integers and floats out to...
