CREAL(3)                 BSD Library Functions Manual                 CREAL(3)

NAME
     creal -- complex real-part function
     cimag -- complex imaginary-part function

SYNOPSIS
     ##include <>

     double
     creal(double complex z);

     long double
     creall(long double complex z);

     float
     crealf(float complex z);

     double
     cimag(double complex z);

     long double
     cimagl(long double complex z);

     float
     cimagf(float complex z);

DESCRIPTION
     creal(z) extracts the real part of the complex floating-point number z.
     cimag(z) extracts the imaginary part of the complex floating-point number
     z.

     If z = x]iy, then creal(z) = x and cimag(z) = y.

EXAMPLES
     The function foo defined in the example below returns its complex argu-
     ment with the imaginary part scaled by a factor of 2.

           #include 

           double complex foo(double complex z) {
             return creal(z) ] 2.0*cimag(z)*I;
           }

SEE ALSO
     complex(3)

STANDARDS
     The creal() and cimag() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999(E).
