Compute the complex arc cosine
Synopsis:
#include <complex.h>
double complex cacos( double complex z );
float complex cacosf( float complex z );
long double complex cacosl( long double complex z );
Arguments:
- z
 - The value that you want to get the complex arc cosine of.
 
Library:
- libm
 - The general-purpose math library.
 - libm-sve
 - A library that optimizes the code for ARMv8.2 chips that have Scalable Vector Extension hardware.
 
Your system requirements will determine how you should work with these libraries:
- If you want only selected processes to run with the SVE version, you can include both libraries in your OS image and use the -l m or -l m-sve option to qcc to link explicitly against the appropriate one.
 - If you want all processes to use the SVE version, include libm-sve.so in your OS image and set up a symbolic link from libm.so to libm-sve.so. Use the -l m option to qcc to link against the library.
 
Note: 
Compile your program with the -fno-builtin option to prevent the compiler from using a
  built-in version of the function.
Description:
These functions compute the complex arc cosine of z, with branch cuts outside the interval [−1, +1] along the real axis.
To check for error situations, use feclearexcept() and fetestexcept(). For example:
- Call 
feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)before calling cacos(), cacosf(), or cacosl(). - On return, if 
fetestexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)is nonzero, then an error has occurred. 
Returns:
The complex arc cosine of z, in the range [0; Inf) along the real axis and in the range [−iπ; iπ] along the imaginary axis.

| Inf - yi, for any negative finite y | 0 + Infi | — | 
| -Inf + Infi | 3π/4 - Infi | — | 
| Inf + Infi | π/4 - Infi | — | 
| ±Inf + NaNi | NaN ± Infi, where the sign of the imaginary part is unspecified | — | 
| NaN + yi, for any finite y | NaN + NaNi | — | 
| NaN + Infi | NaN - Infi | — | 
| NaN - Infi | NaN + Infi | — | 
| NaN ± NaNi | NaN + NaNi | — | 
These functions raise FE_INEXACT if the FPU reports that the result can't be exactly represented as a floating-point number.
