An ordering for Float
s which is consistent with IEEE specifications whenever possible.
lt
,lteq
,equiv
,gteq
andgt
are consistent with primitive comparison operations forFloat
s, and returnfalse
when called withNaN
.min
andmax
are consistent withmath.min
andmath.max
, and returnNaN
when called withNaN
as either argument.compare
behaves the same as java.lang.Float.compare.
Because the behavior of Float
s specified by IEEE is not consistent with a total ordering when dealing with NaN
, there are two orderings defined for Float
: TotalOrdering
, which is consistent with a total ordering, and IeeeOrdering
, which is consistent as much as possible with IEEE spec and floating point operations defined in scala.math.
This ordering may be preferable for numeric contexts.

Concrete methods
Returns an integer whose sign communicates how x compares to y.
Returns an integer whose sign communicates how x compares to y.
The result sign has the following meaning:
- negative if x < y - positive if x > y - zero otherwise (if x == y)

Returns whether or not the other ordering is the opposite ordering of this one.
Returns whether or not the other ordering is the opposite ordering of this one.
Equivalent to other == this.reverse

Given f, a function from T into S, creates an Ordering[T] whose compare function returns the result of this Ordering's compare function, if it is non-zero, or else a result equivalent to:
Ordering[S].compare(f(x), f(y))
This function is equivalent to passing the result of Ordering.by(f)
to orElse
.

Return the opposite ordering of this one.
Implementations overriding this method MUST override isReverseOf as well if they change the behavior at all (for example, caching does not require overriding it).
