cplot helps plotting complex-valued functions in a visually appealing manner.

Install with

```
pip install cplot
```

and use as

```python
import numpy as np

import cplot


def f(z):
    return np.sin(z ** 3) / z


plt = cplot.plot(
    f,
    (-2.0, +2.0, 400),
    (-2.0, +2.0, 400),
    # abs_scaling=lambda x: x / (x + 1),  # how to scale the lightness in domain coloring
    # contours_abs="auto",
    # contours_arg=(-np.pi / 2, 0, np.pi / 2, np.pi),
    # highlight_abs_contour_1: bool = True,
    # colorspace: str = "cam16",
    # add_colorbars: bool = True,
    # add_axes_labels: bool = True,
    # saturation_adjustment: float = 1.28,
)
plt.show()
```

</p>

The plot consists of three building blocks:

- [domain coloring](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_coloring), i.e.,
  mapping the absolute value to lightness and the complex argument to the chroma of
  the representing color
- Contours of constant absolute value (the contour `abs(z) == 1` is highlighted, the
  other contours are at (2, 4, 8, etc. and 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, etc., respectively)
- Contours along constant argument (angle). For `arg(z) == 0`, the color is green, for
  `arg(z) == pi/2` it's orange, for `arg(z) = -pi / 2` it's blue, and for `arg(z) = pi`
  it's pink

Other useful functions:

<!--pytest-codeblocks:skip-->

```python
# There is a tripcolor function as well for triangulated 2D domains
cplot.tripcolor(triang, z)

# The function get_srgb1 returns the SRGB1 triple for every complex input value.
# (Accepts arrays, too.)
z = 2 + 5j
val = cplot.get_srgb1(z)
```

<!--
- `abs_scaling` can be used to adjust the use of colors. `h` with a value less than
  `1.0` adds more color which can help isolating the roots and poles (which are still
  black and white, respectively). `h-0.0` ignores the magnitude of `f(z)` completely.
  `arctan` is another possible scaling.

- `colorspace` can be set to `hsl` to get the common fully saturated, vibrant colors.
  This is usually a bad idea since it creates artifacts which are not related with the
  underlying data. From [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_coloring):

  > Since the HSL color space is not perceptually uniform, one can see streaks of
  > perceived brightness at yellow, cyan, and magenta (even though their absolute values
  > are the same as red, green, and blue) and a halo around L = 1/2. Use of the Lab
  > color space corrects this, making the images more accurate, but also makes them more
  > drab/pastel.

  Default is [`"cam16"`](https://doi.org/10.1002/col.22131);
  very similar is `"cielab"` (not shown here).
Consider the test function (math rendered with [xdoc](https://github.com/nschloe/xdoc))

```math
f(z) = \frac{(z^2 - 1) (z - 2 - 1j)^2}{z^2 + 2 + 2j}
```

|                               `h-1.0`                                |                               `h-0.5`                                |                               `h-0.0`                                |

With this, it is easy to see where a function has very small and very large values, and
the multiplicty of zeros and poles is instantly identified by counting the color wheel
passes around a black or white point.
