Complex Power Function


Standard Library Header file : complex.h (complex arithmetic)

Introduction

In mathematics complex number is denoted by 'z' .

   z = x + iy

In this number 'x' is the real part and 'y' is imaginary part. 'i' is imaginary unit ,where "i2 = -1 ".
Complex power is defined by the mathematical operation of exponentiation given by "z1z2" .
In C programming language , library function for this is given by Cpow.

Syntax for function


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

Return Value


    These functions shall return the complex power function value.

Returns the complex power of base x raised to the y-th power using the principal branch, whose cuts are along the negative real axis.
