I was just messing around with a new version of Hydro that supports
the "irreflexive partial ordering" property the Markm specified. The
following E session outtake seemed interesting enough to post:
? define m := RedBlackTree new(LesserDouble INSTANCE) asSet
# value: [ ]
? define NaN := 0.0 / 0.0
# value: NaN
? m := m with(NaN)
# value: [ NaN ]
? m contains(NaN)
# value: false
Why do you ask?
? NaN <=> NaN
# value: false
Makes perfect sense, but it sure looks weird.
