Return `true` if `number` is a quiet NaN&period;

== Synopsis

Declared in `&lt;bdlb&lowbar;float&period;h&gt;`

bool
isQuietNan(float number);
----

== Description

An indeterminate floating&hyphen;point value (&quot;quiet NaN&quot; or &quot;QNaN&quot;) results from an operation for which the result is not mathematically defined, such as multiplying infinity by zero&period; If a QNaN is used in a subsequent operations the result will also be a QNaN&period; Note that, because a QNaN is a NaN, if this method returns `true`, then `isNan(x)` will also return `true`&period;

== Return Value

`true` if `number` is a quiet NaN, and `false` otherwise
