islessgreater()

Determine whether one floating-point number is less than or greater than another

Synopsis:

#include <math.h>

#define islessgreater( x, y  ) ...

Arguments:

x, y
The floating-point numbers that you want to compare.

Library:

libm

Use the -l m option to qcc to link against this library.

Description:

The islessgreater() macro determines whether x is less than or greater than y. It's the same as (x) <= (y) || (x) >= (y) but doesn't raise the invalid floating-point exception if x and y are unordered, and it doesn't evaluate x and y twice.

Returns:

The value of (x) <= (y) || (x) >= (y). If x or y is NaN, this function returns 0.
