1 Introduction to GNU MPC
*************************
GNU MPC is a portable library written in C for arbitrary precision
arithmetic on complex numbers providing correct rounding. It implements
a multiprecision equivalent of the C99 standard. It builds upon the GNU
MP and the GNU MPFR libraries.
1.1 How to use this Manual
==========================
Everyone should read *note GNU MPC Basics::. If you need to install the
library yourself, you need to read *note Installing GNU MPC::, too.
The remainder of the manual can be used for later reference, although
it is probably a good idea to skim through it.

2 Installing GNU MPC
********************
To build GNU MPC, you first have to install GNU MP (version 4.3.2 or
higher) and GNU MPFR (version 2.4.2 or higher) on your computer. You
need a C compiler; GCC version 4.4 or higher is recommended, since GNU
MPC may trigger a bug in previous versions, see the thread at
<http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/mpc-discuss/2011-February/000823.html>.
And you need a standard Unix 'make' program, plus some other standard
Unix utility programs.
Here are the steps needed to install the library on Unix systems:
1. 'tar xzf mpc-1.0.2.tar.gz'
2. 'cd mpc-1.0.2'
3. './configure'
if GMP and GNU MPFR are installed into standard directories, that
is, directories that are searched by default by the compiler and
the linking tools.
'./configure --with-gmp=<gmp_install_dir>'
is used to indicate a different location where GMP is installed.
Alternatively, you can specify directly GMP include and GMP lib
directories with './configure --with-gmp-lib=<gmp_lib_dir>
--with-gmp-include=<gmp_include_dir>'.
'./configure --with-mpfr=<mpfr_install_dir>'
is used to indicate a different location where GNU MPFR is
installed. Alternatively, you can specify directly GNU MPFR
include and GNU MPFR lib directories with './configure
--with-mpf-lib=<mpfr_lib_dir>
--with-mpfr-include=<mpfr_include_dir>'.
Another useful parameter is '--prefix', which can be used to
specify an alternative installation location instead of
'/usr/local'; see 'make install' below.
To enable checking for memory leaks using 'valgrind' during 'make
check', add the parameter '--enable-valgrind-tests'.
If for debugging purposes you wish to log calls to GNU MPC
functions from within your code, add the parameter
'--enable-logging'. In your code, replace the inclusion of 'mpc.h'
by 'mpc-log.h' and link the executable dynamically. Then all calls
to functions with only complex arguments are printed to 'stderr' in
the following form: First, the function name is given, followed by
its type such as 'c_cc', meaning that the function has one complex
result (one 'c' in front of the '_'), computed from two complex
arguments (two 'c' after the '_'). Then, the precisions of the
real and the imaginary part of the first result is given, followed
by the second one and so on. Finally, for each argument, the
precisions of its real and imaginary part are specified and the
argument itself is printed in hexadecimal via the function
'mpc_out_str' (*note String and Stream Input and Output::). The
option requires a dynamic library, so it may not be combined with
'--disable-shared'.
Use './configure --help' for an exhaustive list of parameters.
4. 'make'
This compiles GNU MPC in the working directory.
5. 'make check'
This will make sure GNU MPC was built correctly.
If you get error messages, please report them to
'mpc-discuss@lists.gforge.inria.fr' (*Note Reporting Bugs::, for
information on what to include in useful bug reports).
6. 'make install'
This will copy the file 'mpc.h' to the directory
'/usr/local/include', the file 'libmpc.a' to the directory
'/usr/local/lib', and the file 'mpc.info' to the directory
'/usr/local/share/info' (or if you passed the '--prefix' option to
'configure', using the prefix directory given as argument to
'--prefix' instead of '/usr/local'). Note: you need write
permissions on these directories.
2.1 Other 'make' Targets
========================
There are some other useful make targets:
* 'info'
Create an info version of the manual, in 'mpc.info'.
* 'pdf'
Create a PDF version of the manual, in 'doc/mpc.pdf'.
* 'dvi'
Create a DVI version of the manual, in 'doc/mpc.dvi'.
* 'ps'
Create a Postscript version of the manual, in 'doc/mpc.ps'.
* 'html'
Create an HTML version of the manual, in several pages in the
directory 'doc/mpc.html'; if you want only one output HTML file,
then type 'makeinfo --html --no-split mpc.texi' instead.
* 'clean'
Delete all object files and archive files, but not the
configuration files.
* 'distclean'
Delete all files not included in the distribution.
* 'uninstall'
Delete all files copied by 'make install'.
2.2 Known Build Problems
========================
On AIX, if GMP was built with the 64-bit ABI, before building and
testing GNU MPC, it might be necessary to set the 'OBJECT_MODE'
environment variable to 64 by, e.g.,
'export OBJECT_MODE=64'
This has been tested with the C compiler IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise
Edition V8.0 for AIX, version: 08.00.0000.0021, GMP 4.2.4 and GNU MPFR
2.4.1.
Please report any other problems you encounter to
'mpc-discuss@lists.gforge.inria.fr'. *Note Reporting Bugs::.

3 Reporting Bugs
****************
If you think you have found a bug in the GNU MPC library, please
investigate and report it. We have made this library available to you,
and it is not to ask too much from you, to ask you to report the bugs
that you find.
There are a few things you should think about when you put your bug
report together.
You have to send us a test case that makes it possible for us to
reproduce the bug. Include instructions on how to run the test case.
You also have to explain what is wrong; if you get a crash, or if the
results printed are incorrect and in that case, in what way.
Please include compiler version information in your bug report. This
can be extracted using 'gcc -v', or 'cc -V' on some machines. Also,
include the output from 'uname -a'.
If your bug report is good, we will do our best to help you to get a
corrected version of the library; if the bug report is poor, we will not
do anything about it (aside of chiding you to send better bug reports).
Send your bug report to: 'mpc-discuss@lists.gforge.inria.fr'.
If you think something in this manual is unclear, or downright
incorrect, or if the language needs to be improved, please send a note
to the same address.

4 GNU MPC Basics
****************
All declarations needed to use GNU MPC are collected in the include file
'mpc.h'. It is designed to work with both C and C++ compilers. You
should include that file in any program using the GNU MPC library by
adding the line
#include "mpc.h"
4.1 Nomenclature and Types
==========================
"Complex number" or "Complex" for short, is a pair of two arbitrary
precision floating-point numbers (for the real and imaginary parts).
The C data type for such objects is 'mpc_t'.
The "Precision" is the number of bits used to represent the mantissa of
the real and imaginary parts; the corresponding C data type is
'mpfr_prec_t'. For more details on the allowed precision range, *note
(mpfr.info)Nomenclature and Types::.
The "rounding mode" specifies the way to round the result of a complex
operation, in case the exact result can not be represented exactly in
the destination mantissa; the corresponding C data type is 'mpc_rnd_t'.
A complex rounding mode is a pair of two rounding modes: one for the
real part, one for the imaginary part.
4.2 Function Classes
====================
There is only one class of functions in the GNU MPC library, namely
functions for complex arithmetic. The function names begin with 'mpc_'.
The associated type is 'mpc_t'.
4.3 GNU MPC Variable Conventions
================================
As a general rule, all GNU MPC functions expect output arguments before
input arguments. This notation is based on an analogy with the
assignment operator.
GNU MPC allows you to use the same variable for both input and output
in the same expression. For example, the main function for
floating-point multiplication, 'mpc_mul', can be used like this:
'mpc_mul (x, x, x, rnd_mode)'. This computes the square of X with
rounding mode 'rnd_mode' and puts the result back in X.
Before you can assign to an GNU MPC variable, you need to initialize
it by calling one of the special initialization functions. When you are
done with a variable, you need to clear it out, using one of the
functions for that purpose.
A variable should only be initialized once, or at least cleared out
between each initialization. After a variable has been initialized, it
may be assigned to any number of times.
For efficiency reasons, avoid to initialize and clear out a variable
in loops. Instead, initialize it before entering the loop, and clear it
out after the loop has exited.
You do not need to be concerned about allocating additional space for
GNU MPC variables, since each of its real and imaginary part has a
mantissa of fixed size. Hence unless you change its precision, or clear
and reinitialize it, a complex variable will have the same allocated
space during all its life.
4.4 Rounding Modes
==================
A complex rounding mode is of the form 'MPC_RNDxy' where 'x' and 'y' are
one of 'N' (to nearest), 'Z' (towards zero), 'U' (towards plus
infinity), 'D' (towards minus infinity). The first letter refers to the
rounding mode for the real part, and the second one for the imaginary
part. For example 'MPC_RNDZU' indicates to round the real part towards
zero, and the imaginary part towards plus infinity.
The 'round to nearest' mode works as in the IEEE P754 standard: in
case the number to be rounded lies exactly in the middle of two
representable numbers, it is rounded to the one with the least
significant bit set to zero. For example, the number 5, which is
represented by (101) in binary, is rounded to (100)=4 with a precision
of two bits, and not to (110)=6.
4.5 Return Value
================
Most GNU MPC functions have a return value of type 'int', which is used
to indicate the position of the rounded real and imaginary parts with
respect to the exact (infinite precision) values. If this integer is
'i', the macros 'MPC_INEX_RE(i)' and 'MPC_INEX_IM(i)' give 0 if the
corresponding rounded value is exact, a negative value if the rounded
value is less than the exact one, and a positive value if it is greater
than the exact one. Similarly, functions computing a result of type
'mpfr_t' return an integer that is 0, positive or negative depending on
whether the rounded value is the same, larger or smaller then the exact
result.
Some functions, such as 'mpc_sin_cos', compute two complex results;
the macros 'MPC_INEX1(i)' and 'MPC_INEX2(i)', applied to the return
value 'i' of such a function, yield the exactness value corresponding to
the first or the second computed value, respectively.
4.6 Branch Cuts And Special Values
==================================
Some complex functions have branch cuts, across which the function is
discontinous. In GNU MPC, the branch cuts chosen are the same as those
specified for the corresponding functions in the ISO C99 standard.
Likewise, when evaluated at a point whose real or imaginary part is
either infinite or a NaN or a signed zero, a function returns the same
value as those specified for the corresponding function in the ISO C99
standard.

5 Complex Functions
*******************
The complex functions expect arguments of type 'mpc_t'.
The GNU MPC floating-point functions have an interface that is
similar to the GNU MP integer functions. The function prefix for
operations on complex numbers is 'mpc_'.
The precision of a computation is defined as follows: Compute the
requested operation exactly (with "infinite precision"), and round the
result to the destination variable precision with the given rounding
mode.
The GNU MPC complex functions are intended to be a smooth extension
of the IEEE P754 arithmetic. The results obtained on one computer
should not differ from the results obtained on a computer with a
different word size.

5.1 Initialization Functions
============================
An 'mpc_t' object must be initialized before storing the first value in
it. The functions 'mpc_init2' and 'mpc_init3' are used for that
purpose.
-- Function: void mpc_init2 (mpc_t Z, mpfr_prec_t PREC)
Initialize Z to precision PREC bits and set its real and imaginary
parts to NaN. Normally, a variable should be initialized once only
or at least be cleared, using 'mpc_clear', between initializations.
-- Function: void mpc_init3 (mpc_t Z, mpfr_prec_t PREC_R, mpfr_prec_t
PREC_I)
Initialize Z with the precision of its real part being PREC_R bits
and the precision of its imaginary part being PREC_I bits, and set
the real and imaginary parts to NaN.
-- Function: void mpc_clear (mpc_t Z)
Free the space occupied by Z. Make sure to call this function for
all 'mpc_t' variables when you are done with them.
Here is an example on how to initialize complex variables:
{
mpc_t x, y;
mpc_init2 (x, 256); /* precision _exactly_ 256 bits */
mpc_init3 (y, 100, 50); /* 100/50 bits for the real/imaginary part */
...
mpc_clear (x);
mpc_clear (y);
}
The following function is useful for changing the precision during a
calculation. A typical use would be for adjusting the precision
gradually in iterative algorithms like Newton-Raphson, making the
computation precision closely match the actual accurate part of the
numbers.
-- Function: void mpc_set_prec (mpc_t X, mpfr_prec_t PREC)
Reset the precision of X to be *exactly* PREC bits, and set its
real/imaginary parts to NaN. The previous value stored in X is
lost. It is equivalent to a call to 'mpc_clear(x)' followed by a
call to 'mpc_init2(x, prec)', but more efficient as no allocation
is done in case the current allocated space for the mantissa of X
is sufficient.
-- Function: mpfr_prec_t mpc_get_prec (mpc_t X)
If the real and imaginary part of X have the same precision, it is
returned, otherwise, 0 is returned.
-- Function: void mpc_get_prec2 (mpfr_prec_t* PR, mpfr_prec_t* PI,
mpc_t X)
Returns the precision of the real part of X via PR and of its
imaginary part via PI.

5.2 Assignment Functions
========================
These functions assign new values to already initialized complex numbers
(*note Initializing Complex Numbers::). When using any functions with
'intmax_t' or 'uintmax_t' parameters, you must include '<stdint.h>' or
'<inttypes.h>' _before_ 'mpc.h', to allow 'mpc.h' to define prototypes
for these functions. Similarly, functions with parameters of type
'complex' or 'long complex' are defined only if '<complex.h>' is
included _before_ 'mpc.h'. If you need assignment functions that are
not in the current API, you can define them using the 'MPC_SET_X_Y'
macro (*note Advanced Functions::).
-- Function: int mpc_set (mpc_t ROP, mpc_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP, rounded to the precision of ROP with
the given rounding mode RND.
-- Function: int mpc_set_ui (mpc_t ROP, unsigned long int OP, mpc_rnd_t
RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_si (mpc_t ROP, long int OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_uj (mpc_t ROP, uintmax_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_sj (mpc_t ROP, intmax_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_d (mpc_t ROP, double OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_ld (mpc_t ROP, long double OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_dc (mpc_t ROP, double _Complex OP, mpc_rnd_t
RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_ldc (mpc_t ROP, long double _Complex OP,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_z (mpc_t ROP, mpz_t OP mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_q (mpc_t ROP, mpq_t OP mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_f (mpc_t ROP, mpf_t OP mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_fr (mpc_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP, rounded to the precision of ROP with
the given rounding mode RND. The argument OP is interpreted as
real, so the imaginary part of ROP is set to zero with a positive
sign. Please note that even a 'long int' may have to be rounded,
if the destination precision is less than the machine word width.
For 'mpc_set_d', be careful that the input number OP may not be
exactly representable as a double-precision number (this happens
for 0.1 for instance), in which case it is first rounded by the C
compiler to a double-precision number, and then only to a complex
number.
-- Function: int mpc_set_ui_ui (mpc_t ROP, unsigned long int OP1,
unsigned long int OP2, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_si_si (mpc_t ROP, long int OP1, long int OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_uj_uj (mpc_t ROP, uintmax_t OP1, uintmax_t
OP2, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_sj_sj (mpc_t ROP, intmax_t OP1, intmax_t OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_d_d (mpc_t ROP, double OP1, double OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_ld_ld (mpc_t ROP, long double OP1, long double
OP2, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_z_z (mpc_t ROP, mpz_t OP1, mpz_t OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_q_q (mpc_t ROP, mpq_t OP1, mpq_t OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_f_f (mpc_t ROP, mpf_t OP1, mpf_t OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpc_set_fr_fr (mpc_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2,
mpc_rnd_t RND)
Set the real part of ROP from OP1, and its imaginary part from OP2,
according to the rounding mode RND.
Beware that the behaviour of 'mpc_set_fr_fr' is undefined if OP1 or
OP2 is a pointer to the real or imaginary part of ROP. To exchange
the real and the imaginary part of a complex number, either use
'mpfr_swap (mpc_realref (rop), mpc_imagref (rop))', which also
exchanges the precisions of the two parts; or use a temporary
variable.
For functions assigning complex variables from strings or input
streams, *note String and Stream Input and Output::.
-- Function: void mpc_set_nan (mpc_t ROP)
Set ROP to Nan+i*NaN.
-- Function: void mpc_swap (mpc_t OP1, mpc_t OP2)
Swap the values of OP1 and OP2 efficiently. Warning: The
precisions are exchanged, too; in case these are different,
'mpc_swap' is thus not equivalent to three 'mpc_set' calls using a
third auxiliary variable.

5.3 Conversion Functions
========================
The following functions are available only if '<complex.h>' is included
_before_ 'mpc.h'.
-- Function: double _Complex mpc_get_dc (mpc_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: long double _Complex mpc_get_ldc (mpc_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a C complex number, using the rounding mode RND.
For functions converting complex variables to strings or stream
output, *note String and Stream Input and Output::.

File: mpc.info, Node: String and Stream Input and Output, Next: Complex Comparison, Prev: Converting Complex Numbers, Up: Complex Functions
5.4 String and Stream Input and Output
======================================
-- Function: int mpc_strtoc (mpc_t ROP, const char *NPTR, char
**ENDPTR, int BASE, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Read a complex number from a string NPTR in base BASE, rounded to
the precision of ROP with the given rounding mode RND. The BASE
must be either 0 or a number from 2 to 36 (otherwise the behaviour
is undefined). If NPTR starts with valid data, the result is
stored in ROP, the usual inexact value is returned (*note Return
Value: return-value.) and, if ENDPTR is not the null pointer,
*ENDPTR points to the character just after the valid data.
Otherwise, ROP is set to 'NaN + i * NaN', -1 is returned and, if
ENDPTR is not the null pointer, the value of NPTR is stored in the
location referenced by ENDPTR.
The expected form of a complex number string is either a real
number (an optional leading whitespace, an optional sign followed
by a floating-point number), or a pair of real numbers in
parentheses separated by whitespace. If a real number is read, the
missing imaginary part is set to +0. The form of a floating-point
number depends on the base and is described in the documentation of
'mpfr_strtofr' (*note (mpfr.info)Assignment Functions::). For
instance, '"3.1415926"', '"(1.25e+7 +.17)"', '"(@nan@ 2)"' and
'"(-0 -7)"' are valid strings for BASE = 10. If BASE = 0, then a
prefix may be used to indicate the base in which the floating-point
number is written. Use prefix '0b' for binary numbers, prefix '0x'
for hexadecimal numbers, and no prefix for decimal numbers. The
real and imaginary part may then be written in different bases.
For instance, '"(1.024e+3 +2.05e+3)"' and '"(0b1p+10 +0x802)"' are
valid strings for 'base'=0 and represent the same value.
-- Function: int mpc_set_str (mpc_t ROP, const char *S, int BASE,
mpc_rnd_t rnd)
Set ROP to the value of the string S in base BASE, rounded to the
precision of ROP with the given rounding mode RND. See the
documentation of 'mpc_strtoc' for a detailed description of the
valid string formats. Contrarily to 'mpc_strtoc', 'mpc_set_str'
requires the _whole_ string to represent a valid complex number
(potentially followed by additional white space). This function
returns the usual inexact value (*note Return Value: return-value.)
if the entire string up to the final null character is a valid
number in base BASE; otherwise it returns -1, and ROP is set to
NaN+i*NaN.
-- Function: char * mpc_get_str (int B, size_t N, mpc_t OP, mpc_rnd_t
RND)
Convert OP to a string containing its real and imaginary parts,
separated by a space and enclosed in a pair of parentheses. The
numbers are written in base B (which may vary from 2 to 36) and
rounded according to RND. The number of significant digits, at
least 2, is given by N. It is also possible to let N be zero, in
which case the number of digits is chosen large enough so that
re-reading the printed value with the same precision, assuming both
output and input use rounding to nearest, will recover the original
value of OP. Note that 'mpc_get_str' uses the decimal point of the
current locale if available, and '.' otherwise.
The string is generated using the current memory allocation
function ('malloc' by default, unless it has been modified using
the custom memory allocation interface of 'gmp'); once it is not
needed any more, it should be freed by calling 'mpc_free_str'.
-- Function: void mpc_free_str (char *STR)
Free the string STR, which needs to have been allocated by a call
to 'mpc_get_str'.
The following two functions read numbers from input streams and write
them to output streams. When using any of these functions, you need to
include 'stdio.h' _before_ 'mpc.h'.
-- Function: int mpc_inp_str (mpc_t ROP, FILE *STREAM, size_t *READ,
int BASE, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Input a string in base BASE in the same format as for 'mpc_strtoc'
from stdio stream STREAM, rounded according to RND, and put the
read complex number into ROP. If STREAM is the null pointer, ROP
is read from 'stdin'. Return the usual inexact value; if an error
occurs, set ROP to 'NaN + i * NaN' and return -1. If READ is not
the null pointer, it is set to the number of read characters.
Unlike 'mpc_strtoc', the function 'mpc_inp_str' does not possess
perfect knowledge of the string to transform and has to read it
character by character, so it behaves slightly differently: It
tries to read a string describing a complex number and processes
this string through a call to 'mpc_set_str'. Precisely, after
skipping optional whitespace, a minimal string is read according to
the regular expression 'mpfr | '(' \s* mpfr \s+ mpfr \s* ')'',
where '\s' denotes a whitespace, and 'mpfr' is either a string
containing neither whitespaces nor parentheses, or
'nan(n-char-sequence)' or '@nan@(n-char-sequence)' (regardless of
capitalisation) with 'n-char-sequence' a string of ascii letters,
digits or ''_''.
For instance, upon input of '"nan(13 1)"', the function
'mpc_inp_str' starts to recognise a value of NaN followed by an
n-char-sequence indicated by the opening parenthesis; as soon as
the space is reached, it becocmes clear that the expression in
parentheses is not an n-char-sequence, and the error flag -1 is
returned after 6 characters have been consumed from the stream (the
whitespace itself remaining in the stream). The function
'mpc_strtoc', on the other hand, may track back when reaching the
whitespace; it treats the string as the two successive complex
numbers 'NaN + i * 0' and '13 + i'. It is thus recommended to have
a whitespace follow each floating point number to avoid this
problem.
-- Function: size_t mpc_out_str (FILE *STREAM, int BASE, size_t
N_DIGITS, mpc_t OP, mpc_rnd_t RND)
Output OP on stdio stream STREAM in base BASE, rounded according to
RND, in the same format as for 'mpc_strtoc' If STREAM is the null
pointer, ROP is written to 'stdout'.
Return the number of characters written.

5.5 Comparison Functions
========================
-- Function: int mpc_cmp (mpc_t OP1, mpc_t OP2)
-- Function: int mpc_cmp_si_si (mpc_t OP1, long int OP2R, long int
OP2I)
-- Macro: int mpc_cmp_si (mpc_t OP1, long int OP2)
Compare OP1 and OP2, where in the case of 'mpc_cmp_si_si', OP2 is
taken to be OP2R + i OP2I. The return value C can be decomposed
into 'x = MPC_INEX_RE(c)' and 'y = MPC_INEX_IM(c)', such that X is
positive if the real part of OP1 is greater than that of OP2, zero
if both real parts are equal, and negative if the real part of OP1
is less than that of OP2, and likewise for Y. Both OP1 and OP2 are
considered to their full own precision, which may differ. It is
not allowed that one of the operands has a NaN (Not-a-Number) part.
The storage of the return value is such that equality can be simply
checked with 'mpc_cmp (op1, op2) == 0'.

a signed zero with the same sign as the imaginary part of OP.

5.10 Miscellaneous Functions
============================
-- Function: int mpc_urandom (mpc_t ROP, gmp_randstate_t STATE)
Generate a uniformly distributed random complex in the unit square
[0, 1] x [0, 1]. Return 0, unless an exponent in the real or
imaginary part is not in the current exponent range, in which case
that part is set to NaN and a zero value is returned. The second
argument is a 'gmp_randstate_t' structure which should be created
using the GMP 'rand_init' function, see the GMP manual.
-- Function: const char * mpc_get_version (void)
Return the GNU MPC version, as a null-terminated string.
-- Macro: MPC_VERSION
-- Macro: MPC_VERSION_MAJOR
-- Macro: MPC_VERSION_MINOR
-- Macro: MPC_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL
-- Macro: MPC_VERSION_STRING
'MPC_VERSION' is the version of GNU MPC as a preprocessing
constant. 'MPC_VERSION_MAJOR', 'MPC_VERSION_MINOR' and
'MPC_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL' are respectively the major, minor and
patch level of GNU MPC version, as preprocessing constants.
'MPC_VERSION_STRING' is the version as a string constant, which can
be compared to the result of 'mpc_get_version' to check at run time
the header file and library used match:
if (strcmp (mpc_get_version (), MPC_VERSION_STRING))
fprintf (stderr, "Warning: header and library do not match\n");
Note: Obtaining different strings is not necessarily an error, as
in general, a program compiled with some old GNU MPC version can be
dynamically linked with a newer GNU MPC library version (if allowed
by the library versioning system).
-- Macro: long MPC_VERSION_NUM (MAJOR, MINOR, PATCHLEVEL)
Create an integer in the same format as used by 'MPC_VERSION' from
the given MAJOR, MINOR and PATCHLEVEL. Here is an example of how
to check the GNU MPC version at compile time:
#if (!defined(MPC_VERSION) || (MPC_VERSION<MPC_VERSION_NUM(2,1,0)))
# error "Wrong GNU MPC version."
#endif

5.11 Advanced Functions
=======================
-- Macro: MPC_SET_X_Y (REAL_SUFFIX, IMAG_SUFFIX, ROP, REAL, IMAG, RND)
The macro MPC_SET_X_Y is designed to serve as the body of an
assignment function and cannot be used by itself. The REAL_SUFFIX
and IMAG_SUFFIX parameters are the types of the real and imaginary
part, that is, the 'x' in the 'mpfr_set_x' function one would use
to set the part; for the mpfr type, use 'fr'. REAL (respectively
IMAG) is the value you want to assign to the real (resp.
imaginary) part, its type must conform to REAL_SUFFIX (resp.
IMAG_SUFFIX). RND is the 'mpc_rnd_t' rounding mode. The return
value is the usual inexact value (*note Return Value:
return-value.).
For instance, you can define mpc_set_ui_fr as follows:
int mpc_set_ui_fr (mpc_t rop, long int re, double im, mpc_rnd_t rnd)
MPC_SET_X_Y (ui, fr, rop, re, im, rnd);

5.12 Internals
==============
These macros and functions are mainly designed for the implementation of
GNU MPC, but may be useful for users too. However, no upward
compatibility is guaranteed. You need to include 'mpc-impl.h' to use
them.
The macro 'MPC_MAX_PREC(z)' gives the maximum of the precisions of
the real and imaginary parts of a complex number.

Appendix A GNU Free Documentation License
*****************************************
Version 1.3, 3 November 2008
Copyright (C) 2000, 2001, 2002, 2007, 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
<http://fsf.org/>
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
0. PREAMBLE
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
with or without modifying it, either commercially or
noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
license designed for free software.
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
that the software does. But this License is not limited to
software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We
recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
instruction or reference.
1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can
be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
"Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept
the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way
requiring permission under copyright law.
A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
regarding them.
The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the
notice that says that the Document is released under this License.
If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it
is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may
contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify
any Invariant Sections then there are none.
The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
that says that the Document is released under this License. A
Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
be at most 25 words.
A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
general public, that is suitable for revising the document
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed
of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely
available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats
suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise
Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has
been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by
readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if
used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not
"Transparent" is called "Opaque".
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming
simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.
Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.
Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and
edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which
the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and
the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
processors for output purposes only.
The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies
of the Document to the public.
A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
"Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
to this definition.
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
which states that this License applies to the Document. These
Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
has no effect on the meaning of this License.
2. VERBATIM COPYING
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the
conditions in section 3.
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
and you may publicly display copies.
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
front cover must present the full title with all words of the title
equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the
covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as
long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these
conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
adjacent pages.
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable
Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with
each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general
network-using public has access to download using public-standard
network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free
of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take
reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque
copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will
remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one
year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or
through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies,
to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
Document.
4. MODIFICATIONS
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the
Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing
distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever
possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in
the Modified Version:
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous
versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
History section of the Document). You may use the same title
as a previous version if the original publisher of that
version gives permission.
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
from this requirement.
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
Modified Version, as the publisher.
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
the Addendum below.
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
license notice.
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the
Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the
Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and
publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add
an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the
previous sentence.
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
likewise the network locations given in the Document for
previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the
"History" section. You may omit a network location for a work
that was published at least four years before the Document
itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers
to gives permission.
K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section
all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered
in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the
equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
may not be included in the Modified Version.
N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
"Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
Section.
O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate
some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their
titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's
license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other
section titles.
You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
definition of a standard.
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of
the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage
of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document
already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added
by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on
behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old
one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added
the old one.
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
You may combine the Document with other documents released under
this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all
of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
their Warranty Disclaimers.
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
combined work.
In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
"History" in the various original documents, forming one section
Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
"Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You
must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
documents released under this License, and replace the individual
copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents
in all other respects.
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
document.
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
the whole aggregate.
8. TRANSLATION
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
include the original English version of this License and the
original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
disagreement between the translation and the original version of
this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
prevail.
If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
actual title.
9. TERMINATION
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
after your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you
under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not
permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the
same material does not give you any rights to use it.
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
<http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/>.
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
that specified version or of any later version that has been
published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may
choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Document specifies that a proxy can
decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
11. RELICENSING
"Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A
public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
A "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the
site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
site.
"CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
published by that same organization.
"Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
in part, as part of another Document.
An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
License, and if all works that were first published under this
License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
to November 1, 2008.
The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
====================================================
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
notices just after the title page:
Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
Free Documentation License''.
If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
being LIST.
If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
situation.
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free
software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit
their use in free software.
