VMS Help RTL Routines, OTS$, OTS$POWCxCx  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    The Raise a Complex Base to a Complex Floating-Point Exponent
    routines raise a complex base to a complex exponent.

    Format

      OTS$POWCC  complex-base ,complex-exponent-value

      OTS$POWCDCD_R3  complex-base ,complex-exponent-value (VAX only)

      OTS$POWCGCG_R3  complex-base ,complex-exponent-value

1 - Returns

    OpenVMS usage:complex_number
    type:         F_floating complex, D_floating complex, G_floating
                  complex
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by value

    Result of raising a complex base to a complex exponent. OTS$POWCC
    returns an F-floating complex number. OTS$POWCDCD_R3 returns a
    D-floating complex number. OTS$POWCGCG_R3 returns a G-floating
    complex number.

2 - Arguments

 complex-base

    OpenVMS usage:complex_number
    type:         F_floating complex, D_floating complex, G_floating
                  complex
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by value

    Complex base. The complex-base argument contains the value of
    the base. For OTS$POWCC, complex-base is an F-floating complex
    number. For OTS$POWCDCD_R3, complex-base is a D-floating complex
    number. For OTS$POWCGCG_R3, complex-base is a G-floating complex
    number.

 complex-exponent-value

    OpenVMS usage:complex_number
    type:         F_floating complex, D_floating complex, G_floating
                  complex
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by value

    Complex exponent. The complex-exponent-value argument contains
    the value of the exponent. For OTS$POWCC, complex-exponent-value
    is an F-floating complex number. For OTS$POWCDCD_R3, complex-
    exponent-value is a D-floating complex number. For OTS$POWCGCG_
    R3, complex-exponent-value is a G-floating complex number.
