+.SH NAME
+clog, clogf, clogl \- natural logarithm of a complex number
+.SH LIBRARY
+Math library
+.RI ( libm ", " \-lm )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <complex.h>
+.PP
+.BI "double complex clog(double complex " z );
+.BI "float complex clogf(float complex " z );
+.BI "long double complex clogl(long double complex " z );

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions calculate the complex natural logarithm of
+.IR z ,
+with a branch cut along the negative real axis.
+.PP
+The logarithm
+.BR clog ()
+is the inverse function of the exponential
+.BR cexp (3).
+Thus, if \fIy\ =\ clog(z)\fP, then \fIz\ =\ cexp(y)\fP.
+The imaginary part of
+.I y
+is chosen in the interval [\-pi,pi].
+.PP
+One has:
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.EX
+clog(z) = log(cabs(z)) + I * carg(z)
+.EE
+.in
+.PP
+Note that
+.I z
+close to zero will cause an overflow.
+.SH VERSIONS
+These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
