isgreater

Defined in header <math.h> 
#define isgreater(x, y) /* implementation defined */
 (since C99)

Determines if the floating point number x is greater than the floating-point number (y), without setting floating-point exceptions.

Parameters

x - floating point value
y - floating point value

Return value

Nonzero integral value if x > y, ​0​ otherwise.

Notes

The built-in operator> for floating-point numbers may set FE_INVALID if one or both of the arguments is NaN. This function is a "quiet" version of operator>.

Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
 
int main(void)
{
    printf("isgreater(2.0,1.0)      = %d\n", isgreater(2.0,1.0));
    printf("isgreater(1.0,2.0)      = %d\n", isgreater(1.0,2.0));
    printf("isgreater(INFINITY,1.0) = %d\n", isgreater(INFINITY,1.0));
    printf("isgreater(1.0,NAN)      = %d\n", isgreater(1.0,NAN));
 
    return 0;
}

Possible output:

isgreater(2.0,1.0)      = 1
isgreater(1.0,2.0)      = 0
isgreater(INFINITY,1.0) = 1
isgreater(1.0,NAN)      = 0
