d-p-q-r-tests: why is plnorm(exp(Inf)) equal pnorm(Inf)?
I stumbled across a result of d-p-q-r-tests: d-p-q-r-tests expects pnorm(Inf) and pnorm(-Inf) to give the same results as plnorm(exp(Inf)) and plnorm(exp(-Inf)), respectively. Does this mean that all expressions result in NaN (which I expect for the 3rd and 4th expression only) or does it mean that R can prevent the exp(Inf) to be evaluated before being parsed in the context of plnorm?
