I think I'd let Inf*0 = NaN, the argument being as follows: Ignoring the sign, if the result of an operation on finite values is Inf, the true value can be anything above the greatest representable, and if the result is 0, the value can be anything below the smallest representable. The product of the two can be *any* value including 0 and infinite. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
