DESCRIPTION
The finite(), finitef(), and finitel() functions return a nonzero value
if x is neither infinite nor a "not-a-number" (NaN) value, and 0 other-
wise.
The isnan(), isnanf(), and isnanl() functions return a nonzero value if
x is a NaN value, and 0 otherwise.
The isinf(), isinff(), and isinfl() functions return 1 if x is positive
infinity, -1 if x is negative infinity, and 0 otherwise.

NOTES
Note that these functions are obsolete. C99 defines macros isfinite(),
isinf(), and isnan() (for all types) replacing them. Further note that
the C99 isinf() has weaker guarantees on the return value. See fpclas-
sify(3).
