Specifications for special values of the complex functions are defined according to the following formula

Sub(x1+i*y1,x2+i*y2) = (x1-x2) + i*(y1-y2).

Overflow in a complex function occurs (supported in the HA/LA accuracy modes only) when x1, x2, y1, y2 are finite numbers, but the real or imaginary part of the computed result is so large that it does not fit the target precision. In this case, the function returns ∞ in that part of the result, raises the OVERFLOW exception, and sets the VM Error Status to VML_STATUS_OVERFLOW (overriding any possible VML_STATUS_ACCURACYWARNING status).
