[erlang-questions] BSON parsing?

[Roger Lipscombe]

Ah, it turns out that the bug is to do with NaN. The binary in
question is <<0,0,0,0,0,0,248,127>>. If I feed the hex representation
(0x7ff80000) to http://www.h-schmidt.net/FloatConverter/IEEE754.html,
it tells me is NaN.

Does Erlang actually have a representation of NaN? And, if so, why is
bson-erlang not using it?

Thanks,
Roger.
