The <complex.h> header is part of the standard library of the C programming language which provides a set of macros and functions that support complex arithmetic.
Contents
Optional Header[edit]
C11 has made this header optional and therefore need not be provided by an implementation. A program can check for the existence of this header by checking if the macro __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__ is defined. When defined, an implementation is not required to provide this header nor any of its facilities.
#ifndef __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__
# include <complex.h>
#else
# error Implementation has no complex type support!
#endif
If the implementation defines __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ to the integer constant 1, the complex arithmetic implementation conforms to Annex G of the C standard (IEC 60559 standard).
Naming convention[edit]
The naming convention used in this header is a set of principle functions followed by a number of secondary functions of the same name but with a f and l suffixes for the float and long double versions of the function. The principle function is one with one or more double complex parameters an a double complex or double return value.
Values in radians[edit]
All the functions in this header expect values in radians, not degrees.
Imaginary unit[edit]
The imaginary unit number, commonly denoted as i, is defined as a number i such that i2 = -1.
Macros[edit]
The header provides the following macro definitions:
Macro Name | Description | Since |
---|---|---|
complex | Expands to the _Complex keyword | C99 |
_Complex_I | Expands to the value of the imaginary unit with the type const float _Complex. | C99 |
imaginary | Expands to _Imaginary keyword | C99 |
_Imaginary_I | Expands to the value of the imaginary unit with the type const float _Imaginary. | C99 |
I | Expands to _Imaginary_I if defined, otherwise expands to _Complex_I | C99 |
CMPLX | Expand to an expression of type double complex | C11 |
CMPLXF | Expand to an expression of type float complex | C11 |
Pragmas[edit]
The pragmas:
Pragma Name | Description | Since |
---|---|---|
STDC CX_LIMITED_RANGE | Indicates that the usual mathematical formulas are acceptable. | C99 |
