ISGREATER(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual ISGREATER(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The
Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
isgreater — test if x greater than y
#include <math.h>
int isgreater(real-floating x, real-floating y);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned
with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements
described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This
volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.
The isgreater() macro shall determine whether its first argument
is greater than its second argument. The value of isgreater(x, y)
shall be equal to (x) > (y); however, unlike (x) > (y),
isgreater(x, y) shall not raise the invalid floating-point
exception when x and y are unordered.
Upon successful completion, the isgreater() macro shall return
the value of (x) > (y).
If x or y is NaN, 0 shall be returned.
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
None.
The relational and equality operators support the usual
mathematical relationships between numeric values. For any
ordered pair of numeric values, exactly one of the relationships
(less, greater, and equal) is true. Relational operators may
raise the invalid floating-point exception when argument values
are NaNs. For a NaN and a numeric value, or for two NaNs, just
the unordered relationship is true. This macro is a quiet (non-
floating-point exception raising) version of a relational
operator. It facilitates writing efficient code that accounts for
NaNs without suffering the invalid floating-point exception. In
the SYNOPSIS section, real-floating indicates that the argument
shall be an expression of real-floating type.
None.
None.
