NAME

       isfinite - test for finite value

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

       int isfinite(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

       The isfinite() macro shall determine whether its argument has a finite value (zero, subnormal, or normal,
       and not infinite or NaN). First, an argument represented in a format wider  than  its  semantic  type  is
       converted to its semantic type. Then determination is based on the type of the argument.

RETURN VALUE

       The isfinite() macro shall return a non-zero value if and only if its argument has a finite value.
