precision arithmetic.
+.. option:: -fcomplex-arithmetic=<value>:
+
+ This option specifies the implementation for complex multiplication and division.
+
+ Valid values are: ``basic``, ``improved``, ``full`` and ``promoted``.
+
+ * ``basic`` Implementation of complex division and multiplication using
+ algebraic formulas at source precision. No special handling to avoid
+ overflow. NaN and infinite and values are not handled.
+ * ``improved`` Implementation of complex division using the Smith algorithm
+ at source precision. Smith's algorithm for complex division.
+ See SMITH, R. L. Algorithm 116: Complex division. Commun. ACM 5, 8 (1962).
+ This value offers improved handling for overflow in intermediate
+ calculations, but overflow may occur. NaN and infinite and values are not
+ handled in some cases.
+ * ``full`` Implementation of complex division and multiplication using a
+ call to runtime library functions (generally the case, but the BE might
+ sometimes replace the library call if it knows enough about the potential
+ range of the inputs). Overflow and non-finite values are handled by the
+ library implementation. For the case of multiplication overflow will occur in
+ accordance with normal floating-point rules.
+ * ``promoted`` Implementation of complex division using algebraic formulas at
+ higher precision. Overflow is handled. Non-finite values are handled in some
+ cases. If the target does not have native support for a higher precision
+ data type, an implementation for the complex operation will be used to provide
+ improved guards against intermediate overflow, but overflow and underflow may
+ still occur in some cases. NaN and infinite and values are not handled.
+ This is the default value.

.. option:: -fcx-limited-range:
- This option enables the naive mathematical formulas for complex division and

+ This option is aliased to ``-fcomplex-arithmetic=basic``. It enables the

+ ``-fcomplex-arithmetic=full``. This option is enabled by the ``-ffast-math``
