NAME
       isfinite - test for finite value

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       int isfinite(real-floating x);


DESCRIPTION
       The isfinite() macro shall determine whether its argument has a finite value (zero,
       subnormal, or normal, and not infinite or NaN). First, an argument represented in a
       format  wider than its semantic type is converted to its semantic type. Then deter-
       mination is based on the type of the argument.

RETURN VALUE
       The isfinite() macro shall return a non-zero value if and only if its argument  has
       a finite value.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
