exp()函数返回nan时不应该

我在while循环中有以下代码,我使用exp()函数计算一些概率。无论对程序的输入是什么 在循环的第7次迭代中,exp返回nan。

  if(new<=old){
     coloring[random_node]=random_color;
  }else{
     proba=exp((-(new-old))/temperature);
     /*assert(!isnan(proba));*/
     printf("proba == %.50f\n",proba);
     if(random_percent(proba)){
            coloring[random_node]=random_color;
     }
  }

以下是循环内第6次和第7次迭代的调试信息。

Continuing.

proba == -nan

在这两种情况下,使用的变量具有完全相同的值。

扎克的直觉是正确的。我的random_percent函数如下所示,并且没有声明round()宏。

int random_percent(double probability){ 
    int edge=round(100*probability); 
    return ((rand () % 100) < edge) ? 1 : 0;  
}
