"cmath" --- Matematyczne funkcje dla liczb zespolonych
******************************************************

======================================================================

This module provides access to mathematical functions for complex
numbers.  The functions in this module accept integers, floating-point
numbers or complex numbers as arguments. They will also accept any
Python object that has either a "__complex__()" or a "__float__()"
method: these methods are used to convert the object to a complex or
floating-point number, respectively, and the function is then applied
to the result of the conversion.

  For functions involving branch cuts, we have the problem of deciding
  how to define those functions on the cut itself. Following Kahan's
  "Branch cuts for complex elementary functions" paper, as well as
  Annex G of C99 and later C standards, we use the sign of zero to
  distinguish one side of the branch cut from the other: for a branch
  cut along (a portion of) the real axis we look at the sign of the
  imaginary part, while for a branch cut along the imaginary axis we
  look at the sign of the real part.For example, the "cmath.sqrt()"
  function has a branch cut along the negative real axis. An argument
  of "complex(-2.0, -0.0)" is treated as though it lies *below* the
  branch cut, and so gives a result on the negative imaginary axis:

     >>> cmath.sqrt(complex(-2.0, -0.0))
     -1.4142135623730951j

  But an argument of "complex(-2.0, 0.0)" is treated as though it lies
  above the branch cut:

     >>> cmath.sqrt(complex(-2.0, 0.0))
     1.4142135623730951j


Conversions to and from polar coordinates
=========================================

A Python complex number "z" is stored internally using *rectangular*
or *Cartesian* coordinates.  It is completely determined by its *real
part* "z.real" and its *imaginary part* "z.imag".  In other words:

   z == z.real + z.imag*1j

*Polar coordinates* give an alternative way to represent a complex
number.  In polar coordinates, a complex number *z* is defined by the
modulus *r* and the phase angle *phi*. The modulus *r* is the distance
from *z* to the origin, while the phase *phi* is the counterclockwise
angle, measured in radians, from the positive x-axis to the line
segment that joins the origin to *z*.

The following functions can be used to convert from the native
rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates and back.

cmath.phase(x)

   Return the phase of *x* (also known as the *argument* of *x*), as a
   float. "phase(x)" is equivalent to "math.atan2(x.imag, x.real)".
   The result lies in the range [-*π*, *π*], and the branch cut for
   this operation lies along the negative real axis.  The sign of the
   result is the same as the sign of "x.imag", even when "x.imag" is
   zero:

      >>> phase(complex(-1.0, 0.0))
      3.141592653589793
      >>> phase(complex(-1.0, -0.0))
      -3.141592653589793

Informacja:

  The modulus (absolute value) of a complex number *x* can be computed
  using the built-in "abs()" function.  There is no separate "cmath"
  module function for this operation.

cmath.polar(x)

   Return the representation of *x* in polar coordinates.  Returns a
   pair "(r, phi)" where *r* is the modulus of *x* and phi is the
   phase of *x*.  "polar(x)" is equivalent to "(abs(x), phase(x))".

cmath.rect(r, phi)

   Return the complex number *x* with polar coordinates *r* and *phi*.
   Equivalent to "r * (math.cos(phi) + math.sin(phi)*1j)".


Power and logarithmic functions
===============================

cmath.exp(x)

   Return *e* raised to the power *x*, where *e* is the base of
   natural logarithms.

cmath.log(x[, base])

   Returns the logarithm of *x* to the given *base*. If the *base* is
   not specified, returns the natural logarithm of *x*. There is one
   branch cut, from 0 along the negative real axis to -∞.

cmath.log10(x)

   Return the base-10 logarithm of *x*. This has the same branch cut
   as "log()".

cmath.sqrt(x)

   Return the square root of *x*. This has the same branch cut as
   "log()".


Trigonometric functions
=======================

cmath.acos(x)

   Return the arc cosine of *x*. There are two branch cuts: One
   extends right from 1 along the real axis to ∞. The other extends
   left from -1 along the real axis to -∞.

cmath.asin(x)

   Return the arc sine of *x*. This has the same branch cuts as
   "acos()".

cmath.atan(x)

   Return the arc tangent of *x*. There are two branch cuts: One
   extends from "1j" along the imaginary axis to "∞j". The other
   extends from "-1j" along the imaginary axis to "-∞j".

cmath.cos(x)

   Return the cosine of *x*.

cmath.sin(x)

   Return the sine of *x*.

cmath.tan(x)

   Return the tangent of *x*.


Hyperbolic functions
====================

cmath.acosh(x)

   Return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of *x*. There is one branch
   cut, extending left from 1 along the real axis to -∞.

cmath.asinh(x)

   Return the inverse hyperbolic sine of *x*. There are two branch
   cuts: One extends from "1j" along the imaginary axis to "∞j".  The
   other extends from "-1j" along the imaginary axis to "-∞j".

cmath.atanh(x)

   Return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of *x*. There are two branch
   cuts: One extends from "1" along the real axis to "∞". The other
   extends from "-1" along the real axis to "-∞".

cmath.cosh(x)

   Zwraca cosinus hiperboliczny z *x*.

cmath.sinh(x)

   Zwraca sinus hiperboliczny z *x*.

cmath.tanh(x)

   Zwraca tangens hiperboliczny z *x*.


Funkcje klasyfikujące
=====================

cmath.isfinite(x)

   Zwraca "True" jeżeli obie rzeczywista i urojona część *x* są
   skończone, i "False" w przeciwnym wypadku.

   Nowe w wersji 3.2.

cmath.isinf(x)

   Zwraca "True" jeżeli rzeczywista lub urojona część *x* jest
   skończona, i "False" w przeciwnym wypadku.

cmath.isnan(x)

   Zwraca "True" jeżeli rzeczywista lub urojona część *x* jest NaN, i
   "False" w przeciwnym wypadku.

cmath.isclose(a, b, *, rel_tol=1e-09, abs_tol=0.0)

   Zwraca "True" jeżeli wartości *a* i *b* są zbliżone do siebie i
   "False" w przeciwnym wypadku.

   To czy dwie wartości są zbliżone do siebie, zależy od dostarczonej
   absolutnej lub relatywnej tolerancji.

   *rel_tol* is the relative tolerance -- it is the maximum allowed
   difference between *a* and *b*, relative to the larger absolute
   value of *a* or *b*. For example, to set a tolerance of 5%, pass
   "rel_tol=0.05".  The default tolerance is "1e-09", which assures
   that the two values are the same within about 9 decimal digits.
   *rel_tol* must be greater than zero.

   *abs_tol* is the minimum absolute tolerance -- useful for
   comparisons near zero. *abs_tol* must be at least zero.

   If no errors occur, the result will be: "abs(a-b) <= max(rel_tol *
   max(abs(a), abs(b)), abs_tol)".

   The IEEE 754 special values of "NaN", "inf", and "-inf" will be
   handled according to IEEE rules.  Specifically, "NaN" is not
   considered close to any other value, including "NaN".  "inf" and
   "-inf" are only considered close to themselves.

   Nowe w wersji 3.5.

Note that the selection of functions is similar, but not identical, to
that in module "math".  The reason for having two modules is that some
users aren't interested in complex numbers, and perhaps don't even
know what they are.  They would rather have "math.sqrt(-1)" raise an
exception than return a complex number. Also note that the functions
defined in "cmath" always return a complex number, even if the answer
can be expressed as a real number (in which case the complex number
has an imaginary part of zero).

A note on branch cuts: They are curves along which the given function
fails to be continuous.  They are a necessary feature of many complex
functions.  It is assumed that if you need to compute with complex
functions, you will understand about branch cuts.  Consult almost any
(not too elementary) book on complex variables for enlightenment.  For
information of the proper choice of branch cuts for numerical
purposes, a good reference should be the following:
