isfinite - test for finite value

#include <math.h>
int isfinite(real-floating x);

The isfinite() macro determines whether its argument has a finite value (zero, subnormal, or normal, and not infinite or 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.

The isfinite() macro returns a non-zero value if and only if its argument has a finite value.

No errors are defined.
