Description

       These  functions  calculate the complex natural logarithm of z, with a branch cut along the negative real
       axis.

       The logarithm clog() is the inverse function of the exponential  cexp(3).   Thus,  if  y=clog(z),  then
       z=cexp(y).  The imaginary part of y is chosen in the interval [-pi,pi].

       One has:

           clog(z) = log(cabs(z)) + I * carg(z)

       Note that z close to zero will cause an overflow.
