9.Nm catanl
10.Nd complex arc tangent functions
11.Sh SYNOPSIS
12.In complex.h
13.Ft double complex
14.Fn catan "double complex z"
15.Ft float complex
16.Fn catanf "float complex z"
17.Ft long double complex

19.Sh DESCRIPTION
20These functions compute the complex arc tangent of
21.Ar z ,
22with branch cuts outside the interval
23[\- i,\ +i] along the imaginary axis.
24.Sh RETURN VALUES
25These functions return the complex arc tangent value, in the
26range of a strip mathematically unbounded along the imaginary
27axis and in the interval [-pi/2,\ +pi/2] along the
28real axis.
29.Sh ERRORS
30No errors are defined.
