The header
<tgmath.h>
provides type-generic macros
for
<math.h>
and
<complex.h>
functions that have
float
(suffixed with
f),
double
and
long double
(suffixed with
l)
versions.
The arguments that vary across the three functions and have type
float, double
and
long double,
respectively, are called
generic arguments.
The following rules describe which function is actually called if a
type-generic macro is invoked.
If any generic argument has type
long double
or
long double complex,
the
long double
function is called.
Else, if any generic argument has type
double, double complex
or an integer type, the
double
version is invoked.
Otherwise, the macro expands to the
float
implementation.
For the macros in the following table, both real and complex functions
exist.
The real functions are prototyped in
<math.h>
and the complex equivalents in
<complex.h>.
The complex function is called if any of the generic arguments is a
complex value.
Otherwise, the real equivalent is called.
| Macro | real function | complex function |
| acos() | acos() | cacos() |
| asin() | asin() | casin() |
| atan() | atan() | catan() |
| acosh() | acosh() | cacosh() |
| asinh() | asinh() | casinh() |
| atanh() | atanh() | catanh() |
| cos() | cos() | ccos() |
| sin() | sin() | csin() |
| tan() | tan() | ctan() |
| cosh() | cosh() | ccosh() |
| sinh() | sinh() | csinh() |
| tanh() | tanh() | ctanh() |
| exp() | exp() | cexp() |
| log() | log() | clog() |
| pow() | pow() | cpow() |
| sqrt() | sqrt() | csqrt() |
| fabs() | fabs() | cabs() |
No complex functions exist for the following macros, so passing a
complex value to a generic argument invokes undefined behaviour:
| atan2() | fma() | llround() | remainder() |
| cbrt() | fmax() | log10() | remquo() |
| ceil() | fmin() | log1p() | rint() |
| copysign() | fmod() | log2() | round() |
| erf() | frexp() | logb() | scalbn() |
| erfc() | hypot() | lrint() | scalbln() |
| exp2() | ilogb() | lround() | tgamma() |
| expm1() | ldexp() | nearbyint() | trunc() |
| fdim() | lgamma() | nextafter() | amp; |
| floor() | llrint() | nexttoward() | amp; |
The following macros always expand to a complex function:
| carg() | cimag() | conj() | cproj() | creal() |
