是否存在isnan()函数?

注:我在MinGW(如果这有区别的话)。

我使用isnan()从<math.h>解决了这个问题,这在<cmath>中不存在,我一开始是#包括在内的。


当前回答

下面的代码使用NAN(所有指数位集合,至少一个小数位集合)的定义,并假设sizeof(int) = sizeof(float) = 4。你可以在维基百科中查找NAN的详细信息。

bool IsNan(浮点值) { return ((*(UINT*)&value) & 0x7fffffff) > 0x7f800000; }

其他回答

截至c++ 14,有许多方法来测试浮点数值是否为NaN。

Of these ways, only checking of the bits of the number's representation, works reliably, as noted in my original answer. In particular, std::isnan and the often proposed check v != v, do not work reliably and should not be used, lest your code stops working correctly when someone decides that floating point optimization is needed, and asks the compiler to do that. This situation can change, compilers can get more conforming, but for this issue that hasn't happened in the 6 years since the original answer.

在大约6年的时间里,我最初的答案是这个问题的选择解决方案,这是OK的。但最近,一个高度好评的答案推荐了不可靠的v != v测试。因此,这是一个额外的最新答案(我们现在有c++ 11和c++ 14标准,以及即将出现的c++ 17标准)。


从c++ 14开始,检查nan属性的主要方法是:

std::isnan(value) ) is the intended standard library way since C++11. isnan apparently conflicts with the Posix macro of the same name, but in practice that isn't a problem. The main problem is that when floating point arithmetic optimization is requested, then with at least one main compiler, namely g++, std::isnan returns false for NaN argument. (fpclassify(value) == FP_NAN) ) Suffers from the same problem as std::isnan, i.e., is not reliable. (value != value) ) Recommended in many SO answers. Suffers from the same problem as std::isnan, i.e., is not reliable. (value == Fp_info::quiet_NaN()) ) This is a test that with standard behavior should not detect NaNs, but that with the optimized behavior maybe could detect NaNs (due to optimized code just comparing the bitlevel representations directly), and perhaps combined with another way to cover the standard un-optimized behavior, could reliably detect NaN. Unfortunately it turned out to not work reliably. (ilogb(value) == FP_ILOGBNAN) ) Suffers from the same problem as std::isnan, i.e., is not reliable. isunordered(1.2345, value) ) Suffers from the same problem as std::isnan, i.e., is not reliable. is_ieee754_nan( value ) ) This isn't a standard function. It's checking of the bits according to the IEEE 754 standard. It's completely reliable but the code is somewhat system-dependent.


在下面完整的测试代码中,“success”是表达式是否报告值的Nan-ness。对于大多数表达式来说,这种成功的度量,即检测nan(且仅检测nan)的目标与它们的标准语义相对应。然而,对于(value == Fp_info::quiet_NaN())表达式,标准行为是它不能作为nan检测器工作。

综上所述,仅使用本测试程序中定义的is_ieee754_nan函数直接测试位级表示,在g++和Visual c++的所有情况下都能可靠地工作。


附录: 在发布上述内容后,我意识到另一种可能的NaN测试,在这里的另一个答案中提到,即((value < 0) == (value >= 0))。这在Visual c++中运行得很好,但在g++的- fast-math选项中失败了。只有直接位模式测试才能可靠地工作。

IEEE标准说 当指数都是1时 而且 尾数不是零, 该号码是一个NaN。 Double是1个符号位,11个指数位和52个尾数位。 做一点检查。

如果你的编译器支持c99扩展,有一个std::isnan,但我不确定mingw是否支持。

下面是一个小函数,如果你的编译器没有标准函数,它应该可以工作:

bool custom_isnan(double var)
{
    volatile double d = var;
    return d != d;
}

根据IEEE标准,NaN值有一个奇怪的性质,涉及它们的比较总是假的。也就是说,对于浮点数f, f != f只有在f为NaN时才为真。

请注意,正如下面的一些评论所指出的,并不是所有编译器在优化代码时都尊重这一点。

对于任何声称使用IEEE浮点数的编译器,这个技巧都应该有效。但我不能保证它在实践中会起作用。如果有疑问,请检查编译器。

下面的代码使用NAN(所有指数位集合,至少一个小数位集合)的定义,并假设sizeof(int) = sizeof(float) = 4。你可以在维基百科中查找NAN的详细信息。

bool IsNan(浮点值) { return ((*(UINT*)&value) & 0x7fffffff) > 0x7f800000; }
