=head1 NAME

cerfi, erfi - imaginary error function

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<#include <cerf.h>>

B<double _Complex cerfi ( double _Complex z );>

B<double          erfi  ( double x );>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The function B<cerfi> returns an error function rotated in the complex plane,
erfi(z) = -i erf(iz).

The function B<erfi> takes a real argument and returns a real result.

=head1 SEE ALSO

The implementation of B<cerfi> and B<erfi> is trivially based on the functions
B<cerf>(3) and B<im_w_of_x>(3).

Other complex error functions in libcerf:
B<dawson>(3), B<erfcx>(3), B<voigt>(3), B<w_of_z>(3).

The real error function comes with recent versions of glibc, as requested by the C99 standard:
B<erf>(3).
