 Min Nan
Min Nan is spoken in the southern part of the southeastern Chinese province of Fujian as well as by descendents of migrants from this province in Taiwan, Guangdong (around Chaozhou-Swatou, and Leizhou peninsula), Hainan, two counties in southern Zhejiang and Zhoushan archipelago offshore Ningbo.
There are three main dialects of Min Nan in southern Fujian, corresponding to the areas of:
Mǐn Nán (Chinese: 閩南語), also spelt as Minnan or Min-nan; native name Bân-lâm(-gú); literally means "Southern Min" or "Southern Fujian" and refers to the local language/dialect of southern Fujian province, China.

 Min (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Min Nan is also called by the name of its regional variants in the places it is spoken, especially Taiwanese.
Min Bei is centered around the city of Fuzhou, capital of Fujian province (though this variant is also classed by some as Min-Dong, Eastern Min), while Min Nan is dominant in most other locations.
The Southern Min language in Taiwan is known as Hō-ló-oē, in Guangdong as Hoklo, in Hainan as Qiong Wen or Qiongzhou hua (though some class Qiong Wen as a separate sub-group).

The method of claim 11, wherein if none of the at least four floating-point numbers is a default NaN value or a value representing the empty interval, computing the minimum involves selecting the minimum of the at least four floating-point numbers.
On the other hand, default NaN can arise in a variety of ways, including operator-operand combinations, such as IEEE 754.+-.0.times..+-.inf.

But this is a little harder than it seems, since it turns out that specialized float version of equality is different from the polymorphic version.
min and max have pretty strange behavior when it comes to nan's.
comparisons involving nan's always return false, so if you simply implement min as follows: if x < y then x else y the the result will depend on the order.

Now, it is true that a common, but naive, implementation of min() and max() may have what I call undesirable behavior because of the faulty assumption that there are only two outcomes of comparison, rather than the three of IEEE 754: float max(float x, float y) { return ((x > y) ?
>> If x is a number and y is a quiet NaN, then min(x,y), (y,x), max(x,y), >> and max(y,x) return x with no exception.
NaN min(1.00, NaN) -> NaN max(NaN, 1.00) -> NaN min(NaN, 1.00) -> NaN max(NaN, NaN) -> NaN min(NaN, NaN) -> NaN C and C++ lack min() and max() functions, so they are not good candidates for testing existing practice.

Or better yet, swap arg1 and arg2 when calling float8smaller.
If a compare with NaN is always false, how about rewriting it as: result = ((arg1 < arg2) ?

When using ocaml 3.07, I tried and failed to come up with a polymorphic min that behaved reasonably in this case, that is, that returned nan when either argument is nan.
One of the oddities associated with NaNs in ocaml is what happens when you take the min of something and nan.
nan;; - : float = nan # nmin nan 3.;; - : float = nan Still, we don't quite escape from the oddities of nan.
