🌸 NAME 🌸

casinl β€” complex arc sine functions πŸ¦‹

(that's the whole name section. she said "complex arc sine functions" and dipped. main character energy honestly.)


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the tea, literally copy-paste this energy:

#include <complex.h>

long double complex casinl(long double complex z);

so you pull in <complex.h>, and then casinl takes one long double complex called z and hands you back a long double complex. that's the whole deal, periodt. πŸ’œ


πŸ’« DESCRIPTION πŸ’«

ngl this section is giving "girl, go look at the other page" energy:

Refer to casin().

that's it. that's the description. she's pointing you at her sibling. go read casin(), bestie, it's got the lore. πŸ™ˆ
