You should define HUGE such as

int HUGE = 0x7fffffff;

or
#include <values.h>
#define HUGE MAXINT

In addition, file values.h has some defines that can help you (do not forget
to include it)

#define MAXINT      0x7fffffff
#define HIBITS      0x80000000
#define HIBITI      0x80000000

#define MAXLONG     0x7fffffff
#define HIBITL      0x80000000

#define DMAXEXP     308
#define FMAXEXP     38
#define DMINEXP     -307
#define FMINEXP     -37

#define MAXDOUBLE   1.7976931348623158E+308
#define MAXFLOAT    3.40282347E+38F
#define MINDOUBLE   2.2250738585072014E-308
#define MINFLOAT    1.17549435E-38F
#define MAXLDOUBLE  1.1897314953572317649E+4932L
#define MINLDOUBLE  3.362103143112094E-4917L /* This isn't completely
                                                accurate, but it will do for
                                                now. The real value should
                                                be: 3.362103143112094E-4932L
