.SH NAME
|
||||
complex \- basics of complex mathematics
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.B #include <complex.h>
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
Complex numbers are numbers of the form z = a+b*i, where a and b are
|
||||
real numbers and i = sqrt(\-1), so that i*i = \-1.
|
||||
.br
|
||||
There are other ways to represent that number. The pair (a,b) of real
|
||||
numbers may be viewed as a point in the plane, given by X- and
|
||||
Y-coordinates. This same point may also be described by giving
|
||||
the pair of real numbers (r,phi), where r is the distance to the origin O,
|
||||
and phi the angle between the X-axis and the line Oz. Now
|
||||
z = r*exp(i*phi) = r*(cos(phi)+i*sin(phi)).
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The basic operations are defined on z = a+b*i and w = c+d*i as:
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B addition: z+w = (a+c) + (b+d)*i
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B multiplication: z*w = (a*c \- b*d) + (a*d + b*c)*i
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B division: z/w = ((a*c + b*d)/(c*c + d*d)) + ((b*c \- a*d)/(c*c + d*d))*i
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Nearly all math function have a complex counterpart but there are
|
||||
some complex only functions.
|
||||
.SH EXAMPLE
|
||||
Your C-compiler can work with complex numbers if it supports the C99 standard.
|
||||
Link with \-lm. The imaginary unit is represented by I.
