crealf, creal, creall

From cppreference.com
Defined in header <complex.h>
float crealf ( float complex z ) ;
(1) (since C99)
double creal ( double complex z ) ;
(2) (since C99)
long double creall ( long double complex z ) ;
(3) (since C99)
Defined in header <tgmath.h>
#define creal( z )
(4) (since C99)
1-3) Returns the real part of z .
4) Type-generic macro: if z has type long double complex , long double imaginary , or long double , creall is called. If z has type float complex , float imaginary , or float , crealf is called. If z has type double complex , double imaginary , double , or any integer type, creal is called.

Parameters

z - complex argument

Return value

The real part of z .

This function is fully specified for all possible inputs and is not subject to any errors described in math_errhandling

Notes

For any complex variable z , z == creal ( z ) + I * cimag ( z ) .

Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <complex.h>
 
int main(void)
{    
    double complex z = 1.0 + 2.0*I;
    printf("%f%+fi\n", creal(z), cimag(z));
}

Output:

1.000000+2.000000i
