I think the introduction to the "Numbers" section is fairly clear that, from Racket's perspective, +nan.0 and +nan.f are inexact real numbers: https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/numbers.html
I do appreciate the irony of the names. Perhaps `(number? +nan.0)` could be added as another example of `number?` in the documentation, if this is surprising or unclear. -Philip On Thu, Mar 22, 2018 at 1:51 AM, Tim Jervis <t...@timjervis.com> wrote: > I was amused to see (number? +nan.0) returns #t.
