NAME
clog, clogf, clogl - natural logarithm of a complex number SYNOPSIS
#include <complex.h> double complex clog(double complex z); float complex clogf(float complex z); long double complex clogl(long double complex z); Link with -lm. DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the complex natural logarithm of z, with a branch cut along the negative real axis. The logarithm clog() is the inverse function of the exponential cexp(3). Thus, if y = clog(z), then z = cexp(y). The imaginary part of y is chosen in the interval [-pi,pi]. One has: clog(z) = log(cabs(z)) + I * carg(z) Note that z close to zero will cause an overflow. VERSIONS
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
catan, catanf, catanl - complex arc tangents SYNOPSIS
#include <complex.h> double complex catan(double complex z); float complex catanf(float complex z); long double complex catanl(long double complex z); Link with -lm. DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the complex arc tangent of z. If y = catan(z), then z = ctan(y). The real part of y is chosen in the interval [-pi/2,pi/2]. One has: catan(z) = (clog(1 + i * z) - clog(1 - i * z)) / (2 * i) VERSIONS
