nanl(3) OSS Library Calls Reference Manual

NAME

nanl - Returns a long double quiet NaN for speciﬁed string

LIBRARY

H-series and J-series native Guardian processes: $SYSTEM.ZDLLnnn.ZCREDLL

32-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/zcredll

64-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/ycredll

SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h>

long double nanl(

const char *tagp);

PARAMETERS

tagp Speciﬁes the string.

DESCRIPTION

The nan( ) function is a long double version of the nan( ) function; it returns a long double result.

The nanl( ) function returns a quiet NaN from the speciﬁed string. If tagp does not point to an n-

char-sequence or an empty string, nan( ) is equivalent to

strtold("NAN", (char **) NULL).

NOTES

This function is implemented only for the IEEE_ﬂoat ﬂoating-point option. Applications using

this function cannot be compiled if the speciﬁed ﬂoating-point option is Tandem_ﬂoat.

RETURN VALUES

The nanl( ) function returns a quiet NaN, with content indicated through tagp.

ERRORS

No errors are deﬁned.
