ISLESSEQUAL(3P)            POSIX Programmer's Manual           ISLESSEQUAL(3P)
PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the  corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
       islessequal -- test if x is less than or equal to y
SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>
       int islessequal(real-floating x, real-floating y);
DESCRIPTION
       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with  the
       ISO C  standard.  Any  conflict between the requirements described here
       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1-2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.
       The  islessequal()  macro shall determine whether its first argument is
       less than or equal to its second argument. The value of  islessequal(x,
       y)  shall  be equal to (x) <= (y); however, unlike (x) <= (y), islesse-
       qual(x, y) shall not raise the invalid floating-point exception when  x
       and y are unordered.
RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful  completion,  the islessequal() macro shall return the
       value of (x) <= (y).
       If x or y is NaN, 0 shall be returned.
ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
       The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
       None.
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 excep-
       tion 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,  real-floating indicates that the argument shall be an expres-
       sion of real-floating type.
RATIONALE
       None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
