NAME
       catan, catanf - complex arc tangent functions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <complex.h>

       double complex catan(double complex z);
       float complex catanf(float complex z);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions compute the complex arc tangent of z, with branch cuts outside the interval [-i, +i] along the imaginary axis.

RETURN VALUE
       These  functions return the complex arc tangent value, in the range of a strip mathematically unbounded along the imaginary axis and in the
       interval [-pi/2, +pi/2] along the real axis.

ERRORS
