Why isn't this function called zero_in?
if (zero_in(x)) whatever...
seems a lot more natural than
if (in_zero(x)) whatever...
After all, the question is whether zero is in x, not whether x is in zero!
Agreed. And it was already been mentioned before, but unfortunately not at the time of the review. I am bit reluctant to change the interface of a library people have been using for three years now. At least the interval proposal does not contain a function with such a name. Best regards, Guillaume
