*abs_tol* is the absolute tolerance; it defaults to ``0.0`` and it must be
nonnegative. When comparing ``x`` to ``0.0``, ``isclose(x, 0)`` is computed
as ``abs(x) <= rel_tol * abs(x)``, which is ``False`` for any ``x`` and
rel_tol less than ``1.0``. So add an appropriate positive abs_tol argument
as ``abs(x) <= rel_tol * abs(x)``, which is ``False`` for any nonzero ``x`` and
*rel_tol* less than ``1.0``. So add an appropriate positive *abs_tol* argument
to the call.

The IEEE 754 special values of ``NaN``, ``inf``, and ``-inf`` will be
