-.SH DESCRIPTION
-These functions return the complementary error function of
-.IR x ,
-that is, 1.0 \- erf(x).
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, these functions return the complementary error function of
-.IR x ,
-a value in the range [0,2].
-.P
-If
-.I x
-is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
-.P
-If
-.I x
-is +0 or \-0, 1 is returned.
-.P
-If
-.I x
-is positive infinity,
-+0 is returned.
-.P
-If
-.I x
-is negative infinity,
-+2 is returned.
-.P
-If the function result underflows and produces an unrepresentable value,
-the return value is 0.0.
-.P
-If the function result underflows but produces a representable
-(i.e., subnormal) value,
-.\" e.g., erfc(27) on x86-32
-that value is returned, and
-a range error occurs.
-.SH ERRORS
-See
-.BR math_error (7)
-for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
-when calling these functions.
-.P
-The following errors can occur:
-.TP
-Range error: result underflow (result is subnormal)
-.\" .I errno
-.\" is set to
-.\" .BR ERANGE .
-An underflow floating-point exception
-.RB ( FE_UNDERFLOW )
-is raised.
-.P
-These functions do not set
-.IR errno .
-.\" It is intentional that these functions do not set errno for this case
-.\" see https://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6785

-.SH NOTES
-The
-.BR erfc (),
-.BR erfcf (),
-and
-.BR erfcl ()
-functions are provided to avoid the loss accuracy that
-would occur for the calculation 1-erf(x) for large values of
-.I x
-(for which the value of erf(x) approaches 1).
