Textbook Question
Chapter 2.4, Problem 2.53PP
Practice Problem 2.53 (solution page 160)
Fill in the following macro definitions to generate the double-precision values + ∞, –∞, and –0:
#define POS_INFINITY
#define NEG_INFINITY
#define NEG_ZERQ
You cannot use any include files (such as math. h), but you can make use of the fact that the largest finite number that can be represented with double precision is around 1.8× 10308.
