Mathematica Complex Numbers
Mathworld the web s most extensive mathematics resource.
Mathematica complex numbers. Mathematica the 1 tool for creating demonstrations and anything technical. All applicable mathematical functions support arbitrary precision evaluation for complex values of all parameters and symbolic operations automatically treat complex variables with full generality. The coordinate is called the real part and the imaginary part of the complex number respectively. The representation of a complex number in terms of its cartesian coordinates in the form where is the imaginary unit is called the algebraic form of that complex number.
Wolfram alpha explore anything with the first computational knowledge engine. X i y the complex number. Complex numbers were introduced by the italian famous gambler and mathematician gerolamo cardano 1501 1576 in 1545 while he found the explicit formula for all three roots of a cube equation. Convert a complex number to the ordered pair.
A complex number can be visually represented using a two dimensional cartesian coordinate system as an ordered pair of real numbers on the complex plane. Course assistant apps an app for every course right in the palm of your hand. Wolfram blog read our views on math. The new functions reim and absarg make it easy to convert a complex number to either its cartesian or polar representation.
Many mathematicians contributed to the full development of complex numbers. Reim 3 4 i out 1.
