cproj, cprojf, cprojl - project into Riemann Sphere
Math library (
libm,
-lm)
#include <complex.h>
double complex cproj(double complex z);
float complex cprojf(float complex z);
long double complex cprojl(long double complex z);
These functions project a point in the plane onto the surface of a Riemann
Sphere, the one-point compactification of the complex plane. Each finite point
z projects to
z itself. Every complex infinite value is
projected to a single infinite value, namely to positive infinity on the real
axis.
These functions were added in glibc 2.1.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see

C99, POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.
In glibc 2.11 and earlier, the implementation does something different (a
stereographic projection onto a Riemann Sphere).
