# NAN

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | numeric‎ | math

Defined in header `<cmath>` |  |
#define NAN /*implementation defined*/ |  | (since C++11)

The macro `NAN` expands to constant expression of type float which evaluates to a quiet not-a-number (QNaN) value. If the implementation does not support QNaNs, this macro constant is not defined.
