Maxima Function
carg (z)
Returns the complex argument of z.
The complex argument is an angle theta
in (-%pi, %pi]
such that r exp (theta %i) = z
where r
is the magnitude of z.
carg
is a computational function,
not a simplifying function.
carg
ignores the declaration declare (x, complex)
,
and treats x as a real variable.
This is a bug.
