Complex error functions

Part of cerf(3).

Usage

#include <cerf.h>

double _Complex cerf ( double _Complex z );

double _Complex cerfc ( double _Complex z );

Overview

The function cerf is the complex version of the error function: erf(z) = 2/sqrt(pi) * integral from 0 to z of exp(-t*t) dt.

The complementary complex error function cerfc is defined as erfc(z) = 1-cerf(z).
