Appropriate values for negative and positive infinity in MS Excel
I am implementing a parser for MS Excel document [.xlsx files]
To understand, how infinity values are stored inside the Excel, I unzipped one of my Excel file and I found below in one of the sheet:
Here, you can see, the infinity value is stored as a text "INF"
But, I want to know what is exact value Excel uses to represent infinity values. In my parser, instead of parsing text "INF", I want to parse it as actual infinity boundary values.
Could you please help me with this?
Thank you in advance.
Sorry, I was wrong about my analysis. Excel does not have infinity value. It has its upper and lower boundary values for number (1.7976931348623158e+308 and -1.7976931348623158e+308)
The issue was in my parser. I have implemented my Excel parser in OCaml language. OCaml's float_of_string function treats the string "INF" as infinity value.
Anyways, this was an issue from my parser side.
Thank you.
