This function returns a nonzero value if @var{x} is a ``not a number''
value, and zero otherwise. (You can just as well use @code{@var{x} !=
@var{x}} to get the same result).

+However, @code{isnan} will not raise an invalid exception if @var{x} is
+a signalling NaN, while @code{@var{x} != @var{x}} will. This makes
+@code{isnan} much slower than the alternative; in code where performance
+matters and signalling NaNs are unimportant, it's usually better to use
+@code{@var{x} != @var{x}}, even though this is harder to understand.
