CLOG(3)                    Linux Programmer's Manual                   CLOG(3)
NAME
       clog, clogf, clogl - natural logarithm of a complex number
SYNOPSIS
       #include <complex.h>
       double complex clog(double complex z);
       float complex clogf(float complex z);
       long double complex clogl(long double complex z);
       Link with -lm.
DESCRIPTION
       These  functions  calculate  the complex natural logarithm of z, with a
       branch cut along the negative real axis.
       The logarithm  clog()  is  the  inverse  function  of  the  exponential
       cexp(3).   Thus,  if y = clog(z), then z = cexp(y).  The imaginary part
       of y is chosen in the interval [-pi,pi].
       One has:
           clog(z) = log(cabs(z)) + I * carg(z)
       Note that z close to zero will cause an overflow.
VERSIONS
       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
