NAME

islessequal() — floating-point comparison macro (<=)

SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h>

int islessequal( floating-expr x, floating-expr y);

DESCRIPTION

The islessequal() macro determines whether its first argument is less than or equal to its second argument. The value of islessequal(x,y) is always equal to (x) <= (y); however, unlike (x) <= (y), islessequal(x,y) does not raise the invalid exception when x and y are unordered.

The macro can be used with either double or float arguments.

The ISO/ANSI C committee has approved the islessequal() macro for inclusion in the C9X draft standard.

To use the islessequal() macro, compile either with the default -Ae option or with the -Aa and -D_HPUX_SOURCE options. Make sure your program includes <math.h>. Link in the math library by specifying -lm on the compiler or linker command line.

RETURN VALUE

The islessequal() macro returns the value of (x) <= (y).

ERRORS
