Checking if float is an integer

by

Apart from the fine answers already given, you can also use ceilf(f) == f or floorf(f) == f. Both expressions return true if f is an integer. They also returnfalse for NaNs (NaNs always compare unequal) and true for ±infinity, and don’t have the problem with overflowing the integer type used to hold the truncated result, because floorf()/ceilf() return floats.
