csinf, csin, csinl

Parameters

Return value

If no errors occur, the complex sine of z .

Errors and special cases are handled as if the operation is implemented by - I * csinh ( I * z )

Notes

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

Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <complex.h>
 
int main(void)
{
    double complex z = csin(1);  // behaves like real sine along the real line
    printf("sin(1+0i) = %f%+fi ( sin(1)=%f)\n", creal(z), cimag(z), sin(1));
 
    double complex z2 = csin(I); // behaves like sinh along the imaginary line 
    printf("sin(0+1i) = %f%+fi (sinh(1)=%f)\n", creal(z2), cimag(z2), sinh(1));
}

sin(1+0i) = 0.841471+0.000000i ( sin(1)=0.841471)
sin(0+1i) = 0.000000+1.175201i (sinh(1)=1.175201)
