DLAISNAN(3) MathKeisan LAPACK routine DLAISNAN(3)
NAME
DLAISNAN - i not for general use
SYNOPSIS
LOGICAL FUNCTION DLAISNAN(DIN1,DIN2)
DOUBLE PRECISION DIN1,DIN2
PURPOSE
This routine is not for general use. It exists solely to avoid over-
optimization in DISNAN.
DLAISNAN checks for NaNs by comparing its two arguments for inequality.
NaN is the only floating-point value where NaN != NaN returns .TRUE.
To check for NaNs, pass the same variable as both arguments.
Strictly speaking, Fortran does not allow aliasing of function argu-
ments. So a compiler must assume that the two arguments are not the
same variable, and the test will not be optimized away. Interprocedu-
ral or whole-program optimization may delete this test. The ISNAN
functions will be replaced by the correct Fortran 03 intrinsic once the
intrinsic is widely available.
ARGUMENTS
DIN1 (input) DOUBLE PRECISION
DIN2 (input) DOUBLE PRECISION Two numbers to compare for
inequality.
