I am creating an algorithm where a metric may take 3 values:
Now, math.inf
handles the infinite.
The result of the third value has no determined borders. But, I want the second value to be always smaller than infinite and always larger than the third value. Therefore I cannot give it some very large number like 999999999999999
since there is always a possibility that the calculation may exceed it.
What I am looking for is another constant like Ellipsis
of Python 2.
How can I make this happen?
You can try sys.float_info.max
:
>>> import sys
>>> sys.float_info.max
1.7976931348623157e+308
According to the documentation , it's the "maximum representable positive finite float".
