Example: FLOATTAB
values can be used just like normal floating-point values as
shown in the following code fragment. They have the advantage of being
able to represent some values the compiler does not know about such as
the Invalid Float and the infinities.
Access_AMS_Global_Variables;
BCD16 pVal, tVal;
.
.
.
if ( pval == 0.0 )
tVal = FLOATTAB[FPI_POSINF];
else if ( pval == 1.0 )
tval = FLOATTAB[FPI_NEGINF];
