FUNCTION
        <<cpow>>, <<cpowf>>---complex power

INDEX
        cpow
INDEX
        cpowf

SYNOPSIS
       #include <complex.h>
       double complex cpow(double complex <[x]>, double complex <[y]>);
       float complex cpowf(float complex <[x]>, float complex <[y]>);


DESCRIPTION
        @ifnottex
        The cpow functions compute the complex power function x^y 
        power, with a branch cut for the first parameter along the 
        negative real axis.
        @end ifnottex
        @tex
        The cpow functions compute the complex power function $x^y$ 
        power, with a branch cut for the first parameter along the 
        negative real axis.
        @end tex

        <<cpowf>> is identical to <<cpow>>, except that it performs
        its calculations on <<floats complex>>.

RETURNS
        The cpow functions return the complex power function value.

PORTABILITY
        <<cpow>> and <<cpowf>> are ISO C99

QUICKREF
        <<cpow>> and <<cpowf>> are ISO C99
