Advanced tools
Double-precision floating-point negative infinity.
@stdlib/constants-float64-ninf is a package that provides a constant representing the negative infinity value for double-precision floating-point numbers (float64). This can be useful in various mathematical computations and algorithms where the concept of negative infinity is required.
Negative Infinity Constant
This feature provides the negative infinity constant, which can be used in mathematical operations and comparisons where negative infinity is a meaningful value.
const ninf = require('@stdlib/constants-float64-ninf');
console.log(ninf); // -InfinityThe 'math-constants' package includes a collection of mathematical constants, such as Pi, Euler's number, and both positive and negative infinity. It is more comprehensive compared to @stdlib/constants-float64-ninf, which focuses solely on the negative infinity constant.
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Double-precision floating-point negative infinity.
npm install @stdlib/constants-float64-ninf
var FLOAT64_NINF = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-ninf' );
Double-precision floating-point negative infinity.
var bool = ( FLOAT64_NINF === -Infinity );
// returns true
var FLOAT64_NINF = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-ninf' );
console.log( FLOAT64_NINF );
// => -Infinity
