Purpose

nag_machine_complex_safe (x02an) returns the safe range of complex floating-point arithmetic.

Syntax

[result] = x02an
[result] = nag_machine_complex_safe

Description

nag_machine_complex_safe (x02an) is defined to be the smallest positive model number z such that for any x in the range [z,1/z] the following can be computed without undue loss of accuracy, overflow, underflow or other error: where w is any of x, ix, x+ix, 1/x, i/x, 1/x+i/x, and i is the square root of -1

References

Example

See Example in nag_machine_precision (x02aj).
function x02an_example


fprintf('x02an example results\n\n');

fprintf('the complex safe range parameter = %22.15e\n', ...
        x02an);


x02an example results

the complex safe range parameter = 2.225073858507202e-308
