Programming with "infinity" in Floyd's Algorithm (courtesy of Joseph Crowe): the IEEE 754-2008 Standard for Floating Point Arithmetic defines special
values for positive and negative infinity, which behave as one might
expect under arithmetic operations; see page 34, section 6.1 of that document. This standard is implemented in many languages, e.g. in class "Double" in Java, illustrated by this little test program.
