ccos(3) Library Functions Manual ccos(3)
NAME
ccos, ccosf, ccosl - complex cosine function
LIBRARY
Math library (libm, -lm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <complex.h>
double complex ccos(double complex z);
float complex ccosf(float complex z);
long double complex ccosl(long double complex z);
DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the complex cosine of z.
The complex cosine function is defined as:
ccos(z) = (exp(i * z) + exp(-i * z)) / 2
