cpowf - Linux


Overview

cpowf calculates the complex power of a complex number. It is commonly used in mathematical calculations involving complex numbers.

Syntax

cpowf(complex number, exponent)

where:

  • complex number: The complex number to raise to the power.
  • exponent: The exponent to raise the complex number to.

Options/Flags

None

Examples

  • Calculate the square of the complex number 2+3i:
    $ cpowf(2+3i, 2)
    (13 - 12i)
    
  • Calculate the cube of the complex number 1+i:
    $ cpowf(1+i, 3)
    (0 + 2i)
    

Common Issues

  • Invalid input: Ensure that the input complex number and exponent are valid numeric values.

Integration

cpowf can be combined with other mathematical functions, such as cabsf, ccosf, and csinf, to perform complex number operations.
