<h2>10.15: Missing data</h2>
<!-- latex: \index{@code{..missingvalue..}, value for missing data} -->
Most Gri commands will ignore data points equal to a "missing value."
For example, `<font color="#82140F"><code>draw curve</code></font>' connects only points which are not equal
(to within 0.01 percent) of the missing value. The curve has holes at
missing data. Initially the missing-value is set to 1.0e22. You may
alter this value with `<font color="#82140F"><code>set missing value .value.</code></font>'.
The built-in variable `<font color="#82140F"><code>..missingvalue..</code></font>' stores the current value
of the missing-value.
<p>
Additionally, Gri will ignore anything it reads that is equal to the
string `<font color="#82140F"><code>NaN</code></font>' or `<font color="#82140F"><code>Inf</code></font>'. These are produced by matlab, C, and
other programs when dividing by zero, etc.
<p>
Gri also ignores mathematical operations on data items which are equal to
the missing value. Thus, for example, if your missing value is -99 then
the command `<font color="#82140F"><code>x += 1</code></font>' will not change the values equal to -99 to -98,
since this would have the side-effect of making the datum no longer be
considered missing.
