NAME

       isinf - test for infinity

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

       int isinf(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

       The  isinf()  macro shall determine whether its argument value is an infinity (positive or
       negative). 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  isinf()  macro  shall  return  a  non-zero  value  if and only if its argument has an
       infinite value.
