SYNOPSIS
#include <ieeefp.h>
int unordered(
double x,
double y
);
PARAMETERS
x Specifies a double-precision floating-point value in IEEE 754 format.
y Specifies a double-precision floating-point value in IEEE 754 format.
DESCRIPTION
The unordered() function returns an indication of whether the floating-point value specified as
the x parameter is unordered with respect to the value specified for the y parameter. This func-
tion is recommended by the IEEE Std 754-1985 for floating-point arithmetic, which defines the
concept of unordered.
NOTES
The unordered() function can be called only by native processes.
This function is not available for Tandem floating-point data.
RETURN VALUES
The unordered() function returns TRUE if the value of x is unordered relative to the value of y.
Otherwise, the value FALSE is returned.
ERRORS
No errors can be returned. This function does not set errno.
