NAME

12       cpow, cpowf, cpowl - complex power functions
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <complex.h>
16
17       double complex cpow(double complex x, double complex y);
18       float complex cpowf(float complex x, float complex y);
19       long double complex cpowl(long double complex x,
20              long double complex y);
