+.SH NAME
+fpclassify \- classify real floating type
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIfpclassify\fP() macro shall classify 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.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+The \fIfpclassify\fP() macro shall return the value of the number
+classification macro appropriate to the value of its
+argument.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+No errors are defined.
