creal, crealf,
  creall —
complex real functions
#include <complex.h>
double
  
  creal(double
    complex z);
float
  
  crealf(float
    complex z);
long double
  
  creall(long
    double complex z);
#include
    <tgmath.h>
complex-float
  
  creal(complex-float
    z);
These functions compute the real part of z.
These functions return the real part value.
For a variable z of type complex:
z == creal(z) + cimag(z)*I
