how to test if a float/double is a number or not ?
I mean acos(2) for example return NaN, how to know programatically it's NaN ?

i don't understand. how can a float or a double not be a number?

Usually this happens when you perform a computation whose result is undefined; a simple example would be something like (0.0 / 0.0).
