------- Comment #22 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2007-10-17 23:49 ------- Well this is just one little opinion:
There is no way that it is realistic to get a valid number out of a NaN or a group of NaNs. It can only be NaN. It's like a place from which there is no return. Maybe we should define a new type called "Useless" so that people understand what a NaN is. :) Returning anything else would mask that the array was all NaNs and give a false sense that all is OK, when its not. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30694
