+.SH NAME
+isgreaterequal \- test if x is greater than or equal to y
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <math.h>
+.br
+.sp
+int isgreaterequal(real-floating\fP \fIx\fP\fB, real-floating\fP \fIy\fP\fB);
+.br
+\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIisgreaterequal\fP() macro shall determine whether its first
+argument is greater than or equal to its second argument.
+The value of \fIisgreaterequal\fP( \fIx\fP, \fIy\fP) shall be equal
+to (\fIx\fP)\ >=\ (\fIy\fP); however, unlike
+(\fIx\fP)\ >=\ (\fIy\fP), \fIisgreaterequal\fP( \fIx\fP, \fIy\fP)
+shall not raise the invalid floating-point
+exception when \fIx\fP and \fIy\fP are unordered.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+Upon successful completion, the \fIisgreaterequal\fP() macro shall
+return the value of
+(\fIx\fP)\ >=\ (\fIy\fP).
+.LP
+If \fIx\fP or \fIy\fP is NaN, 0 shall be returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+No errors are defined.
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH APPLICATION USAGE
+.LP
+The relational and equality operators support the usual mathematical
+relationships between numeric values. For any ordered pair
+of numeric values, exactly one of the relationships (less, greater,
+and equal) is true. Relational operators may raise the invalid
+floating-point exception when argument values are NaNs. For a NaN
+and a numeric value, or for two NaNs, just the unordered
+relationship is true. This macro is a quiet (non-floating-point exception
+raising) version of a relational operator. It facilitates
+writing efficient code that accounts for NaNs without suffering the
+invalid floating-point exception. In the SYNOPSIS section,
+\fBreal-floating\fP indicates that the argument shall be an expression
+of \fBreal-floating\fP type.
+.SH RATIONALE
+.LP
+None.
+.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+.LP
+None.
