# std::real(std::complex)

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | numeric‎ | complex

Defined in header `<complex>` |  |

template< class T > T real( const complex<T>& z ); | (1) | (until C++14)
template< class T > constexpr T real( const complex<T>& z ); | (1) | (since C++14)
long double real( long double z ); | (2) | (since C++11)
template< class DoubleOrIngeter > double real( DoubleOrInteger z ); | (3) | (since C++11)
float real( float z ); | (4) | (since C++11)

Returns the real component of the complex number `z`, i.e. z.real().

Additional overloads are provided for float, double, long double, and all integer types, which are treated as complex numbers with zero imaginary component. (since C++11)

z | - | complex value

### [edit] Return value

the real component of `z`
