NAME

6       csqrt, csqrtf, csqrtl - complex square root
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <complex.h>
10
11       double complex csqrt(double complex z);
12       float complex csqrtf(float complex z);
13       long double complex csqrtl(long double complex z);
14
15       Link with -lm.

DESCRIPTION

18       These  functions  calculate the complex square root of z, with a branch
19       cut along the negative real axis.   (That  means  that  csqrt(-1+eps*I)
20       will be close to I while csqrt(-1-eps*I) will be close to -I, if eps is
21       a small positive real number.)
22

VERSIONS

24       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
