csqrt, csqrtf, csqrtl - complex square root
#include <complex.h>
double complex csqrt(double complex z);
float complex csqrtf(float complex z);
long double complex csqrtl(long double complex z);
Link with
-lm.
These functions calculate the complex square root of
z, with a branch cut
along the negative real axis. (That means that
csqrt(-1+eps*I) will be
close to I while
csqrt(-1-eps*I) will be close to -I,
if eps is
a small positive real number.)
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
