DESCRIPTION
- These functions provide information on the floating-point
+<<fpclassify>>, <<isfinite>>, <<isinf>>, <<isnan>>, and <<isnormal>> are macros
+defined for use in classifying floating-point numbers. This is a help because
+of special "values" like NaN and infinities. In the synopses shown,
+"real-floating" indicates that the argument is an expression of real floating
+type. These function-like macros are C99 and POSIX-compliant, and should be
+used instead of the now-archaic SUSv2 functions.
+
+The <<fpclassify>> macro classifies its argument value as NaN, infinite, normal,
+subnormal, zero, or into another implementation-defined category. First, an
+argument represented in a format wider than its semantic type is converted to
+its semantic type. Then classification is based on the type of the argument.
+The <<fpclassify>> macro returns the value of the number classification macro
+appropriate to the value of its argument:
+
+o+
+o FP_INFINITE
+ <[x]> is either plus or minus infinity;
+o FP_NAN
+ <[x]> is "Not A Number" (plus or minus);
+o FP_NORMAL
+ <[x]> is a "normal" number (i.e. is none of the other special forms);
+o FP_SUBNORMAL
+ <[x]> is too small be stored as a regular normalized number (i.e. loss of precision is likely); or
+o FP_ZERO
+ <[x]> is 0 (either plus or minus).
+o-
+
+The "<<is>>" set of macros provide a useful set of shorthand ways for
+classifying floating-point numbers, providing the following equivalent
+relations:
+
+o+
+o <<isfinite>>(<[x]>)
+returns non-zero if <[x]> is finite. (It is equivalent to
+(<<fpclassify>>(<[x]>) != FP_INFINITE && <<fpclassify>>(<[x]>) != FP_NAN).)
+
+o <<isinf>>(<[x]>)
+returns non-zero if <[x]> is infinite. (It is equivalent to
+(<<fpclassify>>(<[x]>) == FP_INFINITE).)
+
+o <<isnan>>(<[x]>)
+returns non-zero if <[x]> is NaN. (It is equivalent to
+(<<fpclassify>>(<[x]>) == FP_NAN).)
+
+o <<isnormal>>(<[x]>)
+returns non-zero if <[x]> is normal. (It is equivalent to
+(<<fpclassify>>(<[x]>) == FP_NORMAL).)

and <<isinf>> are macros that operate on multiple types of
