Is there a constant defined as NAN for floats?
I noticed that 1.0E500 returns the string '1.#INF' and -1.0E500 returns
'-1.#INF' I was just wondering if you could do something like:
f = math.NAN
f = math.INF
f = -math.INF
etc...
I realize that NAN is implementation dependent and that Python shouldn't
care about the IEEE type implementations.
Seems like it could be useful to have a constant defined for these.
Thanks,
Ken
