+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions return a value whose absolute value matches that of
+.IR x ,
+but whose sign bit matches that of
+.IR y .
+.PP
+For example,
+.I "copysign(42.0,\ \-1.0)"
+and
+.I "copysign(\-42.0, \-1.0)"
+both return \-42.0.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return a value whose magnitude is taken from
+.I x
+and whose sign is taken from
+.IR y .
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN,
+a NaN with the sign bit of
+.I y
+is returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors occur.
