std::sqrt(std::complex) - cppreference.com

Computes the square root of the complex number z with a branch cut along the negative real axis.

[edit] Parameters z - complex number to take the square root of [edit] Return value

If no errors occur, returns the square root of z, in the range of the right half-plane, including the imaginary axis ([0; +∞) along the real axis and (−∞; +∞) along the imaginary axis).

[edit] Error handling and special values

Errors are reported consistent with math_errhandling.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic,

[edit] Notes

The semantics of this function are intended to be consistent with the C function csqrt.

[edit] Example
#include <complex>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "Square root of -4 is "
              << std::sqrt(std::complex<double>(-4.0, 0.0)) << '\n'
              << "Square root of (-4,-0) is "
              << std::sqrt(std::complex<double>(-4.0, -0.0))
              << " (the other side of the cut)\n";
}

Output:

Square root of -4 is (0,2)
Square root of (-4,-0) is (0,-2) (the other side of the cut)
