List of Calc Complex Number functions
Complex numbers are a mathematical concept, and have a real and an imaginary part. In Calc, they are represented by text, for example as a + bi or a + bj. The following functions create or manipulate that text.
The representation of the numbers in the text can have up to 15 significant digits. Scientific style is automatically used if needed. The decimal delimiter is always a dot, local style of numbers is not possible inside the text. The text may not contain any blanks.
COMPLEX | Returns a complex number, given real and imaginary parts as numbers. |
IMABS | Returns the absolute value of a complex number. |
IMAGINARY | Returns the imaginary part of a complex number. |
IMARGUMENT | Returns the argument of a complex number. |
IMCONJUGATE | Returns the complex conjugate of a complex number. |
IMCOS | Returns the cosine of a complex number. |
IMCOSH | Returns the hyperbolic cosine of a complex number. |
IMCSC | Returns the cosecant of a complex number. |
IMCSCH | Returns the hyperbolic cosecant of a complex number. |
