Any conflict between the requirements described here and the +ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard. +.P +The +\fIislessgreater\fR() +macro shall determine whether its first argument is less than or +greater than its second argument. The +.IR islessgreater (\c +.IR x , +.IR y ) +macro is similar to +(\fIx\fR)\ <\ (\fIy\fR)\ ||\ (\fIx\fR)\ >\ (\fIy\fR); however, +.IR islessgreater (\c +.IR x , +.IR y ) +shall not raise the invalid floating-point exception when +.IR x +and +.IR y +are unordered (nor shall it evaluate +.IR x +and +.IR y +twice). +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +Upon successful completion, the +\fIislessgreater\fR() +macro shall return the value of +(\fIx\fR)\ <\ (\fIy\fR)\ ||\ (\fIx\fR)\ >\ (\fIy\fR). +.P +If +.IR x +or +.IR y +is NaN, 0 shall be returned. +.SH ERRORS +No errors are defined. +.LP +.IR "The following sections are informative." +.SH EXAMPLES +None. +.SH "APPLICATION USAGE" +The relational and equality operators support the usual mathematical +relationships between numeric values. For any ordered pair of numeric +values, exactly one of the relationships (less, greater, and equal) is +true. Relational operators may raise the invalid floating-point +exception when argument values are NaNs. For a NaN and a numeric value, +or for two NaNs, just the unordered relationship is true. This macro +is a quiet (non-floating-point exception raising) version of a +relational operator. It facilitates writing efficient code that +accounts for NaNs without suffering the invalid floating-point +exception. In the SYNOPSIS section, +.BR real-floating +indicates that the argument shall be an expression of +.BR real-floating +type. +.SH RATIONALE +None. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IR "\fIisgreater\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIisgreaterequal\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIisless\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIislessequal\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIisunordered\fR\^(\|)" +.P +The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, +.IR "\fB<math.h>\fP" +.\" +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, +Copyright (C) 2018 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group. +In the event of any discrepancy between this version and the original IEEE and +The Open Group Standard, the original IEEE and The Open Group Standard +is the referee document.
