vsip_arg_p - Compute Phase Angle of Complex Scalar

Core

vsip_scalar_f vsip_arg_f(vsip_cscalar_f x);

This function computes the phase angle (argument) of a complex scalar value. The phase angle $θ$ is computed as:

θ= atan2(imag(x),real(x))

where $atan2$ is the two-argument arctangent function that correctly handles all quadrants of the complex plane.

The returned phase angle is in the range $[-π,π]$ radians.
