=head1 NAME
cerf, cerfc - complex error functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<#include <cerf.h>>
B<double _Complex cerf ( double _Complex z );>
B<double _Complex cerfc ( double _Complex z );>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The function B<cerf> is the complex version of the error function: erf(z) = 2/sqrt(pi) * integral from 0 to z of exp(-t*t) dt.
The complementary complex error function B<cerfc> is defined as erfc(z) = 1-cerf(z).
=head1 SEE ALSO
The computations are based on Faddeeva's function B<w_of_z(3)>.
Other complex error functions in libcerf:
B<w_of_z>(3), B<dawson>(3), B<voigt>(3), B<erfcx>(3), B<erfi>(3).
The real error function comes with recent versions of glibc, as requested by the C99 standard:
B<erf>(3)
