Defined in header <complex>
template< class T > complex<T> cos( const complex<T>& z );

Computes complex cosine of a complex value z.

Parameters

z

-

complex value

Return value

If no errors occur, the complex cosine of z is returned.

Errors and special cases are handled as if the operation is implemented by std::cosh(i * z), where i is the imaginary unit.

Notes

The cosine is an entire function on the complex plane, and has no branch cuts.

Mathematical definition of the cosine is cos z =

eiz +e-iz

2

.

Example

Run this code

#include <cmath>
#include <complex>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << std::fixed;
    std::complex<double> z(1.0, 0.0); // behaves like real cosine along the real line
    std::cout << "cos" << z << " = " << std::cos(z)
              << " ( cos(1) = " << std::cos(1) << ")\n";
 
    std::complex<double> z2(0.0, 1.0); // behaves like real cosh along the imaginary line
    std::cout << "cos" << z2 << " = " << std::cos(z2)
              << " (cosh(1) = " << std::cosh(1) << ")\n";
}

Output:

cos(1.000000,0.000000) = (0.540302,-0.000000) ( cos(1) = 0.540302)
cos(0.000000,1.000000) = (1.543081,-0.000000) (cosh(1) = 1.543081)
