It would be better to mention that users can check whether a value
of a parameter $x is NaN or not by
[[ $x = NaN ]] # or of course [[ $x = (#i)nan ]]
For Inf, (( x == Inf )), (( x == inf )) or (( x == -Inf)) etc. work,
but (( x == NaN )) is always false as it should be.
In workers/42369 (16 Feb. 2018):
"zsh/mathfunc should provide an isnan() function"
but there is no isnan() yet. Should we add it now?
Or users can define isnan() by
% __dummy () { [[ $1 = NaN ]] && return 1 || return 0 }
% functions -M isnan 1 1 __dummy
