The **`math.nextafter()` method** is used to get a float value between `x` and `y` where _x, y_ are argument values. This return float value will be towards _y_.

> This method `math.nextafter()` is available from the latest version 
 of Python i.e., _`Python 3.9`_
# 
## Syntax

---
```python
math.nextafter(x, y)
```
---

## Parameters
It takes two argument values.
* `x`: The lower numeric value.
* `y`: The upper numeric value.

## Return Value
It will return a single float value.
* If `x=y`, then it will return a `y` value.

## Example
In the code snippet below, we have different argument values.
1. If `x=Any_Number`,`y=Any_Number`, then it will return the value towards y.
2. If `x=Any_Number`, `y=math.inf`, then it will go up towards positive infinity.
3.  If `x=Any_Number`, `y=-math.inf`, then it will go down towards minus infinity.
4. If `x=Any_Number`, `y=0.0`, then it will go towards zero.

import math

print(math.nextafter(3, 4.2))

import math

print(math.nextafter(3, math.inf))

import math

print(math.nextafter(3, -math.inf))

import math

print(math.nextafter(3, 0.0))
