Function rdbSaveDoubleValue

src/rdb.cpp:592–624

Save a double value. Doubles are saved as strings prefixed by an unsigned * 8 bit integer specifying the length of the representation. * This 8 bit integer has special values in order to specify the following * conditions: * 253: not a number * 254: + inf * 255: - inf */

 * 255: - inf
