I note in the C source that these two pseudo-numbers have representation defined in terms of the particular float scheme used with the C compiler:
#define DNAN ((double)(0.0/0.0)) #define DINF ((double)(1.0/0.0)) Apparently, these two representations come out different. However, in the math I studied, "anything" divided by 0 is still ... like Undefined. And so 0/0 is the same as 1/0 and both are illegal. So as I'm migrating the code to a (gasp!) VB OCX file, I'm trying to figure out what this has to be. It has been a while since I've coded C and there wasn't much emphasis on float numbers way back then. :-) Is there an actual bit-wise value that these come out to be??? Hummmm... sorry to be such a 'newbee.'
