Subject: [PATCH] nextup.3: minor improvements
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2024 12:56:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240807105617.GH3221@qaa.vinc17.org> (raw)

The current "If x is 0" is a bit misleading because "is" is not the
equality test, while this condition should apply to both -0 and 0.
Replace this condition by "If x is equal to 0".

Replace "Nan" by "NaN" (typography used everywhere else).
