# std::isnormal

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | numeric‎ | math

Defined in header `<cmath>` |  |
bool isnormal( float arg ); | (1) | (since C++11)
bool isnormal( double arg ); | (2) | (since C++11)
bool isnormal( long double arg ); | (3) | (since C++11)
bool isnormal( Integral arg ); | (4) | (since C++11)

1-3) Determines if the given floating point number `arg` is normal, i.e. is neither zero, subnormal, infinite, nor NaN.
4) A set of overloads or a function template accepting the `from` argument of any integral type. Equivalent to (2) (the argument is cast to double).

### [edit] Parameters

arg | - | floating point value

### [edit] Return value

true if `arg` is normal, false otherwise

### [edit] Example

Run this code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <cmath>
    #include <cfloat>

    int main()
    {
        std::cout << std::boolalpha
                  << "isnormal(NaN) = " << std::isnormal(NAN) << '\n'
                  << "isnormal(Inf) = " << std::isnormal(INFINITY) << '\n'
                  << "isnormal(0.0) = " << std::isnormal(0.0) << '\n'
                  << "isnormal(DBL_MIN/2.0) = " << std::isnormal(DBL_MIN/2.0) << '\n'
                  << "isnormal(1.0) = " << std::isnormal(1.0) << '\n';
    }

Output:

    isnormal(NaN) = false
    isnormal(Inf) = false
    isnormal(0.0) = false
    isnormal(DBL_MIN/2.0) = false
    isnormal(1.0) = true
