--- Comment #3 from Marc Glisse <glisse at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to N Schaeffer from comment #2) > Do you have a suggestion concerning my last question: > How can I check if x is NaN in a portable way (not presuming any compilation > option) ? This should bypass software optimizations. But if the hardware is put in a mode that does strange things with NaN, it will be harder to work around. int my_isnan(double x){ volatile double y=x; return y!=y; }
