# phase
> Compute the [argument][complex-number-argument] of a complex number in radians.
<section class="intro">
The [argument][complex-number-argument] of a complex number, also known as the **phase**, is the angle of the radius extending from the origin to the complex number plotted in the complex plane and the positive real axis.
</section>
<!-- /.intro -->
<section class="usage">
## Usage
```javascript
var cphase = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/cphase' );
```
#### cphase( re, im )
Computes the [argument][complex-number-argument] of a `complex` number comprised of a **real** component `re` and an **imaginary** component `im`.
```javascript
var phi = cphase( 5.0, 3.0 );
// returns ~0.5404
```

## Examples
<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->
```javascript
var Complex128 = require( '@stdlib/complex/float64' );
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var round = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/round' );
var real = require( '@stdlib/complex/real' );
var imag = require( '@stdlib/complex/imag' );
var cphase = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/cphase' );
var re;
var im;
var z;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
re = round( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
im = round( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
z = new Complex128( re, im );
console.log( 'arg(%s) = %d', z.toString(), cphase( real(z), imag(z) ) );
}
