            Bug ID: 98201
           Summary: CSQRT function gives bad resuts at runtime
           Product: gcc
           Version: 9.2.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: fortran
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: pozar at ecs dot umass.edu
  Target Milestone: ---

I am running mingw gfortran 9.2.0 on Windows 7, and have a problem with results
from the CSQRT function during runtime. Sample code below, with results.
Starting with a complex argument having increasingly large real part, and a
relatively small imaginary part, csqrt initially gives a correct result (as
tested by squaring the result from CSQRT). But the second row shows some
significant error, and later rows show 'Infinity' for the imaginary part.
(using sq = z**.5 gives correct results)


F95 CODE;

! test CSQRT
    complex z, sq
    write(6,*) "         Argument                SquareRoot               SR
squared"
    do n=1,9
        z=-10.**n+(0.,.1)
        sq=csqrt(z)
        write(*,1) z, sq, sq*sq
    end do
1   format(3("(",e10.4,2x,e10.4,")",3x))
pause
