@stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite

What is @stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite?

@stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite is a utility package that provides functions to check if a given value is infinite. This can be useful in various mathematical computations and validations where you need to ensure that values are within a finite range.

What are @stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite's main functionalities?

Check if a value is infinite

This feature allows you to check if a given value is either positive or negative infinity. It returns `true` if the value is infinite and `false` otherwise.

const isInfinite = require('@stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite');

console.log(isInfinite(Infinity)); // true
console.log(isInfinite(-Infinity)); // true
console.log(isInfinite(5)); // false
console.log(isInfinite(NaN)); // false

lodash

Lodash is a utility library that provides a wide range of functions for common programming tasks, including checking if a value is infinite using `_.isFinite`. While it offers more functionality than @stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite, it is also a larger library.

README

isInfinite

Test if a double-precision floating-point numeric value is infinite.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite

Usage

var isInfinite = require( '@stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite' );

isInfinite( x )

Tests if a double-precision floating-point numeric value is infinite.

var bool = isInfinite( Infinity );
// returns true

bool = isInfinite( -Infinity );
// returns true

Examples

var PINF = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-pinf' );
var NINF = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-ninf' );
var isInfinite = require( '@stdlib/math-base-assert-is-infinite' );

var bool = isInfinite( PINF );
// returns true

bool = isInfinite( NINF );
// returns true

bool = isInfinite( 5.0 );
// returns false

bool = isInfinite( NaN );
// returns false
