.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In complex.h
|
|
.Ft double complex
|
|
.Fn cexp "double complex z"
|
|
.Ft float complex
|
|
.Fn cexpf "float complex z"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn cexp
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn cexpf
|
|
functions compute the complex exponential of
|
|
.Fa z ,
|
|
also known as
|
|
.Em cis Ns ( Ns
|
|
.Fa z Ns )
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
For real numbers
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa y ,
|
|
.Fn cexp
|
|
behaves according to Euler's formula:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Fn cexp "x + I*y"
|
|
=
|
|
.Ns ( Sy e Ns ** Ns
|
|
.Fa x *
|
|
.Em cos Ns ( Ns
|
|
.Fa y Ns )) + ( Ns
|
|
.Sy I
|
|
*
|
|
.Sy e Ns ** Ns
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
*
|
|
.Em sin Ns ( Ns
|
|
.Fa y Ns ))
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Generally speaking, infinities, zeroes and \*(Nas are handled as would
|
|
be expected from this identity given the usual rules of floating-point
|
|
arithmetic.
|
|
However, care is taken to avoid generating \*(Nas when they are not deserved.
|
|
For example, mathematically we expect that
|
|
.Fo cimag
|
|
.Fn cexp "x + I*0" Fc
|
|
= 0 regardless of the value of
|
|
.Fa x ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn cexp
|
|
preserves this identity even if
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is \*(If or \*(Na.
|
|
Likewise,
|
|
.Fn cexp "-\*(If + I*y"
|
|
= 0 and
|
|
.Fo creal
|
|
.Fn cexp "\*(If + I*y" Fc
|
|
= \*(If
|
|
for any
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
(even though the latter property is only mathematically true for
|
|
representable
|
|
.Fa y . )
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is not finite, the sign of the result is indeterminate.
