Hi,

You can find the description of all the platform independent ROOT's math
implementation at
http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TMath.html

In particular:
http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TMath.html#TMath:IsNaN


Cheers,
Philippe.

Subject: [ROOT] Symbol nan is not found in current scope


Hi folks,

I get the following error..

Error: Symbol nan is not defined in current scope  FILE:EPTPC_mod.C LINE:120
*** Interpreter error recovered ***

The code is given below..
   .....
   auto_ptr<ofstream> out( new ofstream(op_file));

   ...
   ...
      // Define TGraph to fit a line thro data..

      TGraphErrors *Line = new
TGraphErrors(nlines,Rad,Ephi,Err_rad,Err_phi);
       Line->Fit("pol1","Ql","ep");
       pol1->GetParameters(parm);
       perr[0] = pol1->GetParError(0);
       perr[1] = pol1->GetParError(1);

       cal_eta = parm[0] + parm[1] * 1693.09;

       // Some formatting for output
       out->setf(ios::scientific,ios::floatfield);
       out->setf(ios::showpos);
       out->precision(4);
       out->width(18);

      *out << perr[0] + perr[1] << endl;  <------------------------ This
is where it is bombing..

Can anybody help? I guess there must be some function in the math
library to check not-a-number .. like IsNaN() or something..

 Venkat
