Returns the complex arc tangent of its argument. This function is supported on OpenVMS Integrity servers and Alpha only. Format #include <complex.h> double complex catan (double complex z); float complex catanf (float complex z); long double complex catanl (long double complex z);
1 – Argument
z A complex value.
2 – Description
The catan functions compute the complex arc tangent of z, with branch cuts outside the interval [-i, +i] along the imaginary axis.
3 – Return Values
n The complex arc tangent value, in the range of a strip mathematically unbounded along the imaginary axis and in the interval [-π/2, +π/2] along the real axis.
