    plusp real generalized-boolean

    Arguments and Values

    real — a real.

    generalized-boolean — a generalized boolean.

    Description

    minusp returns true if real is less than zero; otherwise, returns false.

    plusp returns true if real is greater than zero; otherwise, returns false.

    Regardless of whether an implementation provides distinct representations for positive and negative float zeros, (minusp -0.0) always returns false.

    Examples
    (minusp -1)  true 
    (plusp 0)  false 
    (plusp least-positive-single-float)  true
    Exceptional Situations

    Should signal an error of type type-error if real is not a real.
