Description

Testing for values near zero

Synopsis

Documentation

class Num a => Epsilon a whereSource

Provides a fairly subjective test to see if a quantity is near zero.

>>> nearZero (1e-11 :: Double)
False

>>> nearZero (1e-17 :: Double)
True

>>> nearZero (1e-5 :: Float)
False

>>> nearZero (1e-7 :: Float)
True

Methods

Determine if a quantity is near zero.
