z - complex argument

[edit] Return value

The complex tangent of z.

[edit] Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <complex.h>
#include <math.h>
 
#define PI acos(-1)
 
int main(void)
{
    double complex z;
    double x;
 
    /* Print familiar values. */
    int ndx;
    printf("             tan(x)             ctan(z)\n");
    printf("          ------------    ----------------------\n");
    for (ndx=0;ndx<9;ndx++) {
        x = ndx*0.25*PI;
        z = x+0.0*I;
        z = ctan(z);
        printf("%.2f*PI   %12g    %12g%+fi\n", ndx*0.25,tan(x),creal(z),cimag(z));
    }
 
    return 0;
}

Output:
