Java - Float isNaN(float) method



Description

The Java Float isNaN(float v) method returns true if the specified number is a Not-a-Number (NaN) value, false otherwise.The argument v is the value to be tested.

Declaration

Following is the declaration for java.lang.Float.isNan(float) method

public static boolean isNaN(float v)

Parameters

v − This is the value to be tested.

Return Value

This method returns true if the value of the argument is NaN; false otherwise.

Exception

NA

Example 1

The following example shows the usage of Float isNaN() method to check if a Float object carries a NaN value. We've initialized a Float object with an expression which result in positive infinity. Then using isNaN() method, we're checking its value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class FloatDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Float f = new Float(1.0/0.0);
   
      // returns true if NaN
      System.out.println(f + " = " + Float.isNaN(f));
   }
} 

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

Infinity = false

Example 2

The following example shows the usage of Float isNaN() method to check if a Float object carries a NaN value. We've initialized a Float object with an expression which result in negative infinity. Then using isNaN() method, we're checking its value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class FloatDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Float f = new Float(-1.0/0.0);
   
      // returns true if NaN
      System.out.println(f + " = " + Float.isNaN(f));
   }
} 

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

-Infinity = false

Example 3

The following example shows the usage of Float isNaN() method to check if a Float object carries a NaN value. We've initialized a Float object with an expression which result in NAN. Then using isNaN() method, we're checking its value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class FloatDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Float f = new Float(0.0/0.0);
   
      // returns true if NaN
      System.out.println(f + " = " + Float.isNaN(f));
   }
} 

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

NaN = true

Example 4

The following example shows the usage of Float isNaN() method to check if a Float object carries a NaN value. We've initialized a Float object with an expression which result in zero value. Then using isNaN() method, we're checking its value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class FloatDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Float f = new Float(0.0/1.0);
   
      // returns true if NaN
      System.out.println(f + " = " + Float.isNaN(f));
   }
} 

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

0.0 = false
