Equality with Double.NaN

Question

I have the following code...

if (Price_Foreign != Double.NaN) {    output.Append(spacer);    output.Append(String.Format("{0,-10:C} USD",Price_Foreign)); } 

Which outputs:

NaN USD 

What gives?

I'm using Double.NaN to indicate that the value doesn't exist, and shouldn't be output.

Answer 1

Perhaps you are looking for the IsNaN static function?

Try something like this:

if (!Double.IsNaN(Price_Foreign)) {    output.Append(spacer);    output.Append(String.Format("{0,-10:C} USD",Price_Foreign)); }
