Complex128
128-bit complex number.
Usage
var Complex128 = require( '@stdlib/complex/float64' );
Complex128( real, imag )
128-bit complex number constructor, where real
and imag
are the real and imaginary components, respectively.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
// returns <Complex128>
Properties
Complex128.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT
Size (in bytes) of each component.
var nbytes = Complex128.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;
// returns 8
Complex128.prototype.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT
Size (in bytes) of each component.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
var nbytes = z.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;
// returns 8
Complex128.prototype.byteLength
Length (in bytes) of a complex number.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
var nbytes = z.byteLength;
// returns 16
Instance
A Complex128
instance has the following properties...
re
A read-only property returning the real component.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
var re = z.re;
// returns 5.0
im
A read-only property returning the imaginary component.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, -3.0 );
var im = z.im;
// returns -3.0
Methods
Accessor Methods
These methods do not mutate a Complex128
instance and, instead, return a complex number representation.
Complex128.prototype.toString()
Returns a string
representation of a Complex128
instance.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
var str = z.toString();
// returns '5 + 3i'
z = new Complex128( -5.0, -3.0 );
str = z.toString();
// returns '-5 - 3i'
Complex128.prototype.toJSON()
Returns a JSON representation of a Complex128
instance. JSON.stringify()
implicitly calls this method when stringifying a Complex128
instance.
var z = new Complex128( 5.0, -3.0 );
var o = z.toJSON();
/*
{
"type": "Complex128",
"re": 5.0,
"im": -3.0
}
*/
To revive a Complex128
number from a JSON string
, see @stdlib/complex/reviver-float64.
Notes
- Both the real and imaginary components are stored as double-precision floating-point numbers.
Examples
var Complex128 = require( '@stdlib/complex/float64' );
var z = new Complex128( 3.0, -2.0 );
console.log( 'type: %s', typeof z );
// => type: object
console.log( 'str: %s', z );
// => str: 3 - 2i
console.log( 'real: %d', z.re );
// => real: 3.0
console.log( 'imag: %d', z.im );
// => imag: -2.0
console.log( 'JSON: %s', JSON.stringify( z ) );
// => JSON: {"type":"Complex128","re":3,"im":-2}
