-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The normal relational operations (like
-.BR < ,
-"less than")
-fail if one of the operands is NaN.
-This will cause an exception.
-To avoid this, C99 defines the macros listed below.
-.P
-These macros are guaranteed to evaluate their arguments only once.
-The arguments must be of real floating-point type (note: do not pass
-integer values as arguments to these macros, since the arguments will
-.I not
-be promoted to real-floating types).
-.TP
-.BR isgreater ()
-determines \fI(x)\ >\ (y)\fP without an exception
-if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-.TP
-.BR isgreaterequal ()
-determines \fI(x)\ >=\ (y)\fP without an exception
-if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-.TP
-.BR isless ()
-determines \fI(x)\ <\ (y)\fP without an exception
-if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-.TP
-.BR islessequal ()
-determines \fI(x)\ <=\ (y)\fP without an exception
-if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-.TP
-.BR islessgreater ()
-determines \fI(x)\ < (y) || (x) >\ (y)\fP
-without an exception if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-This macro is not equivalent to \fIx\ !=\ y\fP because that expression is
-true if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN.
-.TP
-.BR isunordered ()
-determines whether its arguments are unordered, that is, whether
-at least one of the arguments is a NaN.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The macros other than
-.BR isunordered ()
-return the result of the relational comparison;
-these macros return 0 if either argument is a NaN.
-.P
-.BR isunordered ()
-returns 1 if
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is NaN and 0 otherwise.
-.SH ERRORS
-No errors occur.

-.SH VERSIONS
-Not all hardware supports these functions,
-and where hardware support isn't provided, they will be emulated by macros.
-This will result in a performance penalty.
-Don't use these functions if NaN is of no concern for you.
