A function <math>f</math> defined on some subset of the real line is said to be real analytic at a point <math>x</math> if there is a neighborhood <math>D</math> of <math>x</math> on which <math>f</math> is real analytic.

The definition of a ''complex analytic function'' is obtained by replacing, in the definitions above, "real" with "complex" and "real line" with "complex plane". A function is complex analytic if and only if it is [[Holomorphic function|holomorphic]] i.e. it is complex differentiable. For this reason the terms "holomorphic" and "analytic" are often used interchangeably for such functions.<ref>{{cite book |quote=A function ''f'' of the complex variable ''z'' is ''analytic'' at point ''z''₀ if its derivative exists not only at ''z'' but at each point ''z'' in some neighborhood of ''z''₀. It is analytic in a region ''R'' if it is analytic at every point in ''R''. The term ''holomorphic'' is also used in the literature do denote analyticity |last=Churchill |last2=Brown |last3=Verhey |title=Complex Variables and Applications |___location= |publisher=McGraw-Hill |year=1948 |isbn=0-07-010855-2 |page=[https://archive.org/details/complexvariable00chur/page/46 46] |url-access=registration |url=https://archive.org/details/complexvariable00chur/page/46 }}</ref>
