complex.h(0P) POSIX Programmer's Manual complex.h(0P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
complex.h — complex arithmetic
#include <complex.h>
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
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
The <complex.h> header shall define the following macros:
complex Expands to _Complex.
_Complex_I Expands to a constant expression of type const float
_Complex, with the value of the imaginary unit (that is,
a number i such that i2=−1).
imaginary Expands to _Imaginary.
_Imaginary_I
Expands to a constant expression of type const float
_Imaginary with the value of the imaginary unit.
I Expands to either _Imaginary_I or _Complex_I. If
_Imaginary_I is not defined, I expands to _Complex_I.
The macros imaginary and _Imaginary_I shall be defined if and only if
the implementation supports imaginary types.
An application may undefine and then, perhaps, redefine the complex,
imaginary, and I macros.
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.

The following sections are informative.
Values are interpreted as radians, not degrees.
The choice of I instead of i for the imaginary unit concedes to the
widespread use of the identifier i for other purposes. The
application can use a different identifier, say j, for the imaginary
unit by following the inclusion of the <complex.h> header with:
#undef I
#define j _Imaginary_I
An I suffix to designate imaginary constants is not required, as
multiplication by I provides a sufficiently convenient and more
generally useful notation for imaginary terms. The corresponding real
type for the imaginary unit is float, so that use of I for
algorithmic or notational convenience will not result in widening
types.
On systems with imaginary types, the application has the ability to
control whether use of the macro I introduces an imaginary type, by
explicitly defining I to be _Imaginary_I or _Complex_I. Disallowing
imaginary types is useful for some applications intended to run on
implementations without support for such types.
The macro _Imaginary_I provides a test for whether imaginary types
are supported.
The cis() function (cos(x) + I*sin(x)) was considered but rejected
because its implementation is easy and straightforward, even though
some implementations could compute sine and cosine more efficiently
in tandem.
The following function names and the same names suffixed with f or l
are reserved for future use, and may be added to the declarations in
the <complex.h> header.
