# Complex Numbers [![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url] [![dependencies][dependencies-image]][dependencies-url] > Complex number data types.
## Installation ```bash npm install @stdlib/complex ```
## Usage ```javascript var ns = require( '@stdlib/complex' ); ``` #### ns Complex number data types. ```javascript var o = ns; // returns {...} ``` The namespace constains complex number constructors.
- [`complex( real, imag[, dtype] )`][@stdlib/complex/cmplx]: create a complex number. - [`Complex64( real, imag )`][@stdlib/complex/float32]: 64-bit complex number. - [`Complex128( real, imag )`][@stdlib/complex/float64]: 128-bit complex number.
```javascript var z = ns.complex( 5.0, 3.0 ); // returns var str = z.toString(); // returns '5 + 3i' z = ns.complex( 5.0, 3.0, 'float32' ); // returns z = new ns.Complex64( 5.0, 3.0 ); // returns ``` In addition, the namespace contains the following functions:
- [`conj( z )`][@stdlib/complex/conj]: return the complex conjugate of a complex number. - [`imag( z )`][@stdlib/complex/imag]: return the imaginary component of a complex number. - [`real( z )`][@stdlib/complex/real]: return the real component of a complex number. - [`reim( z )`][@stdlib/complex/reim]: return the real and imaginary components of a complex number. - [`reviveComplex64( key, value )`][@stdlib/complex/reviver-float32]: revive a JSON-serialized 64-bit complex number. - [`reviveComplex128( key, value )`][@stdlib/complex/reviver-float64]: revive a JSON-serialized 128-bit complex number. - [`reviveComplex( key, value )`][@stdlib/complex/reviver]: revive a JSON-serialized complex number.
```javascript var z = ns.complex( 5.0, 3.0 ); var str = z.toString(); // returns '5 + 3i' var v = ns.conj( z ); str = v.toString(); // returns '5 - 3i' ```
## Examples ```javascript var objectKeys = require( '@stdlib/utils/keys' ); var ns = require( '@stdlib/complex' ); console.log( objectKeys( ns ) ); ```
