Subject: [Bug math/6779] New: remainder() wrongly gives a domain error for (NaN, 0)
Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2008 11:15:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080730111427.6779.mtk.manpages@gmail.com> (raw)

The posix reaminder() spec says:

==
If x or y is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.

If x is infinite or y is 0 and the other is non-NaN, a domain error shall occur,
and either a NaN (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be
returned
==

On glibc 2.8, remainder(NaN, 0) gives a domain error (EDOM, FE_INVALID).  As per
the above spec, it should return a NaN without error.
