cimag - Man Page

Math library (libm, -lm)

#include <complex.h>

double cimag(double complex z);
float cimagf(float complex z);
long double cimagl(long double complex z);

These functions return the imaginary part of the complex number z.

One has:

z = creal(z) + I * cimag(z)

These functions were added in glibc 2.1.

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

C99, POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

gcc also supports __imag__. That is a GNU extension.
