DESCRIPTION

       The finite(), finitef(), and finitel() functions return a nonzero value if x is neither  infinite  nor  a
       "not-a-number" (NaN) value, and 0 otherwise.

       The  isnan(),  isnanf(),  and  isnanl()  functions  return  a  nonzero  value  if x is a NaN value, and 0
       otherwise.

       The isinf(), isinff(), and isinfl() functions return 1 if x is positive infinity, -1  if  x  is  negative
       infinity, and 0 otherwise.

NOTES

       Note  that  these  functions  are obsolete.  C99 defines macros isfinite(), isinf(), and isnan() (for all
       types) replacing them.  Further note that the C99 isinf() has weaker guarantees on the return value.  See
       fpclassify(3).
