NAME

cspow - raise complex number to real power


SYNOPSIS

val= cspow(c,s)


INPUT PARAMETERS

c - complex
       number to raise
s - real
       power to raise it


RETURN VALUES

val - complex =
       result of c**s


DESCRIPTION

     Raise a complex number to a real power
     Cspow returns the principal value of a**s for an arbitrary
     complex a and real exponent s.  An equivalent formula is
     cexp(s*clog(a)).
