NAME

       isnormal - test for a normal value

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

       int isnormal(real-floating x);

DESCRIPTION

       The  isnormal()  macro  shall  determine  whether its argument value is
       normal  (neither  zero,  subnormal,  infinite,  nor  NaN).   First,  an
       argument  represented  in  a  format  wider  than  its semantic type is
       converted to its semantic type. Then determination is based on the type
       of the argument.

RETURN VALUE

       The  isnormal()  macro shall return a non-zero value if and only if its
       argument has a normal value.
