cpow(3)

NAME

cpow, cpowf, cpowl — complex power functions

SYNOPSIS

/* -lm */
#include <complex.h>

double complex
cpow(double complex x, double complex z);

float complex
cpowf(float complex x, float complex z);

long double complex
cpowl(long double complex x, long double complex z);

DESCRIPTION

The cpow(), cpowf() and cpowl() functions compute the complex number x raised to the complex power z, with a branch cut along the negative real axis for the first argument.

RETURN VALUES

The cpow(), cpowf() and cpowl() functions return the complex number x raised to the complex power z.

STANDARDS

The cpow(), cpowf() and cpowl() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (“ISO C99”).
