So you disagree with the IEEE floating point specification, then? Javascript is directly following spec there.

  Do you think that such rule for NaN state is useful?
• astrobe_ 10y ago
  Does that spec forces you to implement equality test between floating point numbers?
  • Zarel 10y ago
    ...yes? I'm not sure exactly what you're asking here, though.
    • astrobe_ 10y ago
      I'm asking if it is really a good idea for a language to provide equality/inequality for floating point numbers when it's often mistake to do that.

        So disallow the direct operator but allow equality to be deduced indirectly by usage of > < >= <= ?
