It provides constants for Not-a-Number (NaN), Positive Infinity (Inf), and Negative Infinity (-Inf), as well as functions to -test for these values. +test for these values. The code is implemented in pure python by taking advantage of the 'struct' standard module. Care has been taken to generate proper results on both big-endian and little-endian machines. Some efficiency could be gained by -translating the core routines into C. +translating the core routines into C. |
