DESCRIPTION
[CX] The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (“POSIX.1”) defers to the ISO C standard.
These functions shall compute the complex power function xy, with a branch cut for the first parameter along the negative real axis.
RETURN VALUE
These functions shall return the complex power function value.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
