CSIN(3POSIX)

πŸ’– CSIN(3POSIX) β€” the complex sine functions, bestie πŸ’–

okay so this is a page from the POSIX Programmer's Manual, and it's literally all about csin, csinf, and csinl. yes, the manual name is right there in the title, we're being efficient today πŸ’…


🌸 PROLOG 🌸

okay bestie, real talk before we get into it: this manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. the Linux implementation of this interface may differ (so pls consult the corresponding Linux manual page for the deets on Linux behavior), or β€” and I'm sorry to say this β€” the interface may not even be implemented on Linux at all. 😭 not me delivering bad news in the prolog.


✨ NAME ✨

csin, csinf, csinl β€” the complex sine functions. iconic trio, no cap.


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <complex.h>

double complex csin(double complex z);
float complex csinf(float complex z);
long double complex csinl(long double complex z);

three flavors, one vibe. pick your precision, slay. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so the functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional β€” fr fr, it's an accident, nobody's fighting. and this volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard, so the ISO C standard is the main character here.

anyway, the actual tea: these functions shall compute the complex sine of z. that's it. that's the whole job. ✨


🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

these functions shall return the complex sine value. it's giving "what it says on the tin," honestly. πŸ’…


πŸ’€ ERRORS πŸ’€

No errors are defined. we love a low-drama function, periodt. 🫢

the following sections are informative β€” so they're the bonus content, not the required reading. πŸ“–


🌟 EXAMPLES 🌟

None. 😭


πŸ’œ APPLICATION USAGE πŸ’œ

None. πŸ™ˆ


🧚 RATIONALE 🧚

None. honestly? a mystery wrapped in an enigma. we move. πŸ’«


⭐ FUTURE DIRECTIONS ⭐

None. the future is unknowable but the vibe is immaculate. 🌸

and that's the whole page, bestie!! go compute some complex sines, you absolute legend. πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈπŸ’…πŸ«Ά

signed off with love by IEEE/The Open Group, 2017, on the page CSIN(3POSIX) β€” bye babes, see u in the next man page πŸŒˆπŸ’œ
