cacos, cacosf, cacosl - complex arc cosine
#include <complex.h>
double complex cacos(double complex z
);
float complex cacosf(float complex z
);
long double complex cacosl(long double complex z
);
Link with -lm
.
These functions calculate the complex arc cosine of z
. If y = cacos(z)
, then z = ccos(y)
. The real part of y
is chosen in the interval [0,pi].
One has:
cacos(z) = -i * clog(z + i * csqrt(1 - z * z))
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
