IsAnIndeterminateForm​(AngouriMath.​Entity)

 Method (no overloads)

Summary

Whether what the machinery handed back is an indeterminate form rather than a value:
0 / abs(0), (+oo * 0)^2 -- a shape assembled out of the parts' limits
that evaluates to NaN without any part of it being NaN. NaN is the claim that there
is no limit, and a form the descent could not read is not that claim; it is the
descent saying nothing. A NaN that was decided -- sin(x) at +oo, and
2 * sin(x) with it -- carries the NaN node itself and is kept.

Remarks

Asked where the answer is made and nowhere inside: internally the form's NaN is
what stops every caller from searching further, and withholding it there let
(sin(x) - x) / x^3 at 0 run for minutes.
