NAME

12       cabs, cabsf, cabsl — return a complex absolute value
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <complex.h>
16
17       double cabs(double complex z);
18       float cabsf(float complex z);
19       long double cabsl(long double complex z);

DESCRIPTION

22       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with  the
23       ISO C  standard.  Any  conflict between the requirements described here
24       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1‐2017
25       defers to the ISO C standard.
26
27       These  functions  shall compute the complex absolute value (also called
28       norm, modulus, or magnitude) of z.

RETURN VALUE

31       These functions shall return the complex absolute value.
