NAME

cimag, cimagf, cimagl — complex imaginary functions

SYNOPSIS

#include <complex.h>

double cimag(double complex z);
float cimagf(float complex z);
long double cimagl(long double complex z);


DESCRIPTION

These functions shall compute the imaginary part of z.

RETURN VALUE

These functions shall return the imaginary part value (as a real).

ERRORS

No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES

None.

APPLICATION USAGE

For a variable z of complex type:

z == creal(z) + cimag(z)*I
