There is as soon as you write one. ;)

You could check out the Boost.ConceptCheck library:

I'm not sure about this, but I vaguely recall some discussion about
a numeric limits library.  I'm not sure if it's complete or what, but a
search of the list archives would probably reveal something
interesting.

Not entirely sure, but I suspect they tell you when you can promote
say an int to a double, and things like that.
