Description
The NEGATIVE_INFINITY
property stores a special
numeric value used to represent values more negative than
-Number.MAX_VALUE
(the most-negative number
representable in ActionScript). This is known as an
underflow condition
and is typically caused by a
mathematical error.
Number.NEGATIVE_INFINITY
is normally used in its
more convenient global property form, -Infinity
.
