Infinity

class abjad.mathtools.Infinity.Infinity

Infinity.

All numbers compare less than infinity:

>>> 9999999 < Infinity
True

>>> 2**38 < Infinity
True

Infinity compares equal to itself:

>>> Infinity == Infinity
True

Negative infinity compares less than infinity:

>>> NegativeInfinity < Infinity
True

Initializes as a system singleton at start-up.

Available as a built-in after Abjad starts.
