+FUNCTION
+<<signbit>>--Does floating-point number have negative sign?
+
+INDEX
+ signbit
+
+ANSI_SYNOPSIS
+ #include <math.h>
+ int signbit(real-floating <[x]>);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+The <<signbit>> macro determines whether the sign of its argument value is
+negative. The macro reports the sign of all values, including infinities,
+zeros, and NaNs. If zero is unsigned, it is treated as positive. As shown in
+the synopsis, the argument is "real-floating," meaning that any of the real
+floating-point types (float, double, etc.) may be given to it.
+
+Note that because of the possibilities of signed 0 and NaNs, the expression
+"<[x]> < 0.0" does not give the same result as <<signbit>> in all cases.
+
+RETURNS
+The <<signbit>> macro returns a nonzero value if and only if the sign of its
+argument value is negative.
+
+PORTABILITY
+C99, POSIX.
