Package Gen

isnan

Return 1 if the input is NaN (Not a Number), else return zero.

Description

This operator detects the presence of NaN values, returning 1 if the input is NaN, and zero otherwise. A NaN (Not a Number) is a floating point data value which represents an undefined or unrepresentable value, such as the result of dividing by zero. Computations on NaNs produce more NaNs, and so it is often preferable to replace the NaN with a zero value. Note that division and modulo operators in gen~ protect against generating NaNs by default.
