IsInfinite
Function
Checks whether a floating point number is infinite Math unit
 function IsInfinite ( const FloatNumber : Double ) : Boolean;
Description
The IsInfinite function returns True if FloatNumber is infinite in value.
Related commands
Infinity Floating point value of infinite size
IsNaN Checks to see if a floating point number holds a real number
NaN Not a real number
 
Example code : Assign Infinity to a number and then test using IsInfinite
