Author What Is The Meaning of -1.#IND000 ?

I have a lengthy set of calculations the result of which sometimes
is -1.#IND000 as output by printf(). I know this has to mean I have exceeded
its ability to calculate in some way but any details of the conditions under
which this is displayed in particular would be appreciated.


The calculations are done in a loop that repeats until commanded to stop by
the user. So I would also like to know if there is a way to set a breakpoint
using an if statement I can cause it to break with when this happens, or use
to recover by setting this variable to an alternate value. In this if
statement I need to test equality with the variable that displays this value
in the print statement. What can be put on the other side of = = with this
variable to branch to a break with when this happens?
