I think he's talking about Double.parseDouble(), an input string of
"NaN" should return a NaN double. Now, it throws an exception.
One-liner:
System.out.println(Double.parseDouble("NaN"));
Although, personally.. I'm not so sure of re-writing it in Java. Seems
like overkill for a relatively trivial bug.
(Of course, you could have both too, and add a build-time option. )
