Complex.Add Method

Definition

Namespace:

Adds a specified number to another specified number, where at least one of them is a complex number, and the other could be a double-precision real number.

Overloads

Add(Double, Complex)	Adds a double-precision real number to a complex number and returns the result.
Add(Complex, Double)	Adds a complex number to a double-precision real number and returns the result.
Add(Complex, Complex)	Adds two complex numbers and returns the result.

Examples

The following example illustrates addition with complex numbers.

using System;
using System.Numerics;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Complex[] values= { new Complex(12.3, -1.4),
                          new Complex(-6.2, 3.1),
                          new Complex(8.9, 1.5) };
      foreach (var c1 in values)
         foreach (var c2 in values)
            Console.WriteLine("{0} + {1} = {2}", c1, c2,
                              Complex.Add(c1, c2));
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       (12.3, -1.4) + (12.3, -1.4) = (24.6, -2.8)
//       (12.3, -1.4) + (-6.2, 3.1) = (6.1, 1.7)
//       (12.3, -1.4) + (8.9, 1.5) = (21.2, 0.1)
//       (-6.2, 3.1) + (12.3, -1.4) = (6.1, 1.7)
//       (-6.2, 3.1) + (-6.2, 3.1) = (-12.4, 6.2)
//       (-6.2, 3.1) + (8.9, 1.5) = (2.7, 4.6)
//       (8.9, 1.5) + (12.3, -1.4) = (21.2, 0.1)
//       (8.9, 1.5) + (-6.2, 3.1) = (2.7, 4.6)
//       (8.9, 1.5) + (8.9, 1.5) = (17.8, 3)

Remarks

The Add methods allow performing addition operations that involve complex numbers.

If the method call results in an overflow in either the real or imaginary component, the value of the component is either Double.PositiveInfinity or Double.NegativeInfinity.

Languages that do not support custom operators can use the Add method to perform addition with complex numbers.

The Add methods that receive one double are more efficient than the methods that receive two complex numbers.

Add(Double, Complex)

Source:

Complex.cs

Adds a double-precision real number to a complex number and returns the result.

public:
 static System::Numerics::Complex Add(double left, System::Numerics::Complex right);

Parameters

left

Double

The double-precision real value to add.

right

Complex
