NAME

       csqrt, csqrtf, csqrtl - complex square root

SYNOPSIS

       #include <complex.h>

       double complex csqrt(double complex z);
       float complex csqrtf(float complex z);
       long double complex csqrtl(long double complex z);

       Link with -lm.

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  calculate  the  complex  square  root  of z, with a branch cut along the
       negative  real  axis.   (That  means  that  csqrt(-1+eps*I)  will  be  close  to  I  while
       csqrt(-1-eps*I) will be close to -I, if eps is a small positive real number.)

VERSIONS

       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
