SlepcAbsEigenvalue#

Returns the absolute value of a complex number given its real and imaginary parts.

Synopsis#

PetscReal SlepcAbsEigenvalue(PetscScalar x,PetscScalar y)

Not Collective

Input parameters#

  • x - the real part of the complex number

  • y - the imaginary part of the complex number

Notes#

This function computes sqrt(x2+y2), taking care not to cause unnecessary overflow. It is based on LAPACK’s DLAPY2.

In complex scalars, only the first argument is used.

This function is not available from Fortran.
